H Hibridulo hybrid<br />

X Taktsalo taxon (any)<br />

Y Artefarito artefact<br />

Z Synbiawzo symbiosis<br />

In between F and T may be added a fur<strong>the</strong>r taxon N for “nation”<br />

(Natsio). T replaces “suborder”; L replaces “subclass”. H for<br />

hybrid is used for denot<strong>in</strong>g cross-breeds (chimeras) <strong>in</strong>capable of<br />

reproduc<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>mselves <strong>in</strong> Nature.<br />

1. Evidently, <strong>the</strong> sequence(s) of an official representation must<br />

follow <strong>the</strong> normal hierarchical order, left-to-right <strong>in</strong> text for topto-bottom<br />

<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> table.<br />

Dicotylae Fanerog• G Dykotiledonuloj<br />

Lepadogaster Gobiez• G Lepasogastro<br />

2. Which higher taxon(s) are to be mentioned, or which to be left<br />

out, will be freely decided by <strong>the</strong> specialist <strong>in</strong> each context.<br />

There are no absolute rules here, o<strong>the</strong>r than always keep<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>the</strong> trimeral array well <strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d, if not explicitly <strong>in</strong> writ<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

EXCESSIVE: Mandibl• Entom• Pter• Ektopter• Izopter• G Termito<br />

SUFFICIENT: Entom• L Pterentomontjuloj for <strong>the</strong> cladus Pterygota<br />

3. When a given name is valid for several hiqher taxons, <strong>the</strong><br />

system allows for putt<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> relators concerned one after <strong>the</strong><br />

o<strong>the</strong>r. It seems preferable, though not imperative, to keep<br />

<strong>the</strong>m separated by a blank space.<br />

Synpet• O F Rubleskoj for order & family Rublaceae<br />

Axenarzh• T F Tserveskoj for tribe & family Cervidae<br />

All right — acceptance of this new arrangement and its extra<br />

differentiation will almost certa<strong>in</strong>ly call for a lot of reshuffl<strong>in</strong>g among<br />

<strong>the</strong> traditional taxons. But <strong>the</strong>n, we don’t get “owt for nowt”, do<br />

we? Besides, th<strong>in</strong>k of <strong>the</strong> peace, stability, and unity which must<br />

f<strong>in</strong>ally ensue !
