Dear H.S Ji. I appreciate your knowledge in plant but I think your way of reciprocating to senior colleagues of the group is not quite O.K for me. In scientific community if you are vehemently protesting some ideas then you should have a strong evidence for it. It not us who makes these nomenclatural changes but the credit goes to ICBN. Kosteletzkya vitifolia (L.) M.R.Almeida & N.Patil J. Bombay Nat. Hist. Soc. 93: 111 1996 is an unresolved name the reason for it is the absence of basionym in the publication. Hence, the new nomenclatural change doesn't make any effect and the old name or the basionym i.e. Hibiscus vitifolius L. stays as the the legitimate name. Kindly go through the link provided below.
http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-2334897 As a moderator of the group I will request you to be cordial with fellow members of the group. Though identification of plant is the main aim of our group but we always make sure that the interaction within the group stays soothing and peaceful. No comments from any members of the group should hurt the sentiments of others. I will request you to kindly stick to the group norm and try to help help members with identification in a bit cordial manner. Your knowledge in taxonomy is an asset to the group hence we will always look to get our knowledge refreshed from your ideas. forward Thanks Tanay On Thu, Sep 8, 2011 at 11:21 PM, H S <hemsan...@gmail.com> wrote: > this plant doesnt comes under genus Hibiscus.... its different. > > regards, > > > > On Fri, Sep 9, 2011 at 11:44 AM, Gurcharan Singh <singh...@gmail.com>wrote: > >> Both GRIN and The Plant List treat Hibiscus vitifolius L. as the accepted >> name. >> >> -- >> >> Dr. Gurcharan Singh >> Retired Associate Professor >> SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 >> Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018. >> Phone: 011-25518297 Mob: 9810359089 >> http://people.du.ac.in/~singhg45/ >> >> >> On Fri, Sep 9, 2011 at 10:25 AM, H S <hemsan...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> i think Kosteletzkya vitifolia (L.)
