Larix xmarschlinsii
So what do you call the name Larix xmarschlinsii?
The name of a notho- (i.e. hybrid) taxon, more specificially of a hybrid arising spontaneously in cultivation. Iris Cohen schreef in berichtnieuws So it is the same as xFatshedera lizei. Now where do we put xCitrofortunella mitis (Calamondin)? Is there some location where the natural habitats of tangerines & kumquats overlap, or did it arise in cultivation in the distant past? One of the interesting aspects of hybridizing, at least in orchids, is that occasionally there is a registered artificial hybrid which is subsequently discovered to be also a natural hybrid. The latter is published by a botanical taxonomist, following which the poor plant is doomed forever to carry two different names. According to RHS rules. If it is used as a parent in hybridizing, it is called by the registered name. If the natural hybrid discovery comes first, the plant only has one name, but it may be written differently or carry a Latin ending. Iris, + + + Orchids have their own set of rules, but neither the ICBN nor the ICNCP, as they stand, makes a distiction between natural and artificial hybrids. There are just hybrids. PvR |

Larix xmarschlinsii
In article , P van Rijckevorsel
writes http://www.botany2002.org/section11/abstracts/4.shtml http://www.jaknouse.athens.oh.us/ferns/g_azol.html It's not clear whether Aa. microphylla and mexicana represent one or two hybridisation events. (Or even zero, depending on whether you accept the position given in the first link,) + + + I am not much on ferns, but I don't see anything on hybrids in these links? From the first link "we suggest the Azolla microphylla - mexicana lineage arose through hybridization and homoploid speciation involving A. caroliniana and A. filiculoides." -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |
