| Comments | In the comments under "Diatome", Bory indicates that he established this genus (Diatoma) under the name Archimedea more than 20 years ago, and that since then De Candolle (Flor. Franc., T. II, p. 48) published it under the name Diatoma. Bory indicates that he has adopted De Candolle’s designation. We were not able to track down the first occurrence in the literature of the name Archimedea (possibly published around year 1800, or may be never published). Name already occupied by Archimedea Sacramento ex St. Hilaire, Ann. Sci. Nat. Bot. Ser. 2.7:32. 1837. (Phan. Balanophoraceae). |
