A common error. This is why we have botanical names.

Speaking of botanical names. I´m translating an article to english on
botanical names. I need some help with it. If anyone is interested
please let me know. It includes getting the terms right as well as spell
and grammar check. It will be published in a an american newsletter and
we could put it on the IBC knowledgebase as well if there is any interest.
