Re: Dracunculus and Dracunculus


Marek,

Yes animals and plants can have same gereric names, like Pieris brassicae is a butterfly eating brassicas, but Pieris japonica is a plant from Ericaceae as i know.

Hello,
 
While searching the web for documents I found something that made me scared.
Besides Dracunculus vulgaris and Dracunculus canariense, which we almost all heard about,
I found a document mentioning different species of Dracunculus which are... Nematodes:
 
Is it admissible for two quite different unrelated taxa to bear the same generic name?
 
???
Marek
