And, going back to the discussion we had about Zygo mackayi vs Zygo.
mackaii, the court is still out on the use of the letter 'y' according to
Julian Shaw's email. He is staying with mackayi. The names committee
(IPNI)is meeting in March, so this may come up again.

opps... Phrag troiae if named after either the mother or daughter. Phrag
troiarum if named after both women. Phrag troianum if the adjectival case
is used. Although I still don't know why you would chose substantival vs
adjectival and there MUST be a rule guiding that decission.

Okay, so the name is Phrag Troieae not Phrag Troyae. But I've changed

my
mind, and I haven't published yet, (newsgroups don't count, do they?)

and
I want to name this new Phrag species after all the woman in the Troi
clan, even the less pushy ones, so it must be Phrag Troiiarum, or is it?
