Publication of Case titles in taxonomic serials:
An invitation to editors of journals, newsletters and newsgroups
Rulings from the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature can significantly alter the vocabulary of taxonomy and thus are of interest to a wide range of biologists.
The Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature (BZN) publishes applications for the Commission to set aside the provisions of the Code of Zoological Nomenclature in circumstances where their strict observance would cause instability or confusion. Publication of an application in the form of a Case is an invitation for any person to contribute comments, which may also be published. We would like to promote visibility of Cases and encourage maximum input from the user community. If your journal would like to be kept informed about applications to the Commission and is willing to draw your readers’ attention to relevant Cases please let us know (iczn@nhm.ac.uk), and we will send you an e-listing of titles of applications published in the BZN quarterly
