Thank you, Libor. Is there a difference between Platystoma seminatione and P. seminationis? Thank André |

No, Andre. I am using the nomenclature of our national checklist: http://zoology.fns.uniba.sk/diptera2009/families/platystomatidae.htm Libor |

I think seminatione is correct by the rules of nomenclature. Genus names ending in -stoma are neuter according to ICZN article 30.1.2. The neuter form of the species name should be used if it is an adjective. |

Thank you, John and Libor, for your explanation. Mostly it is written P. seminationis, but now I will use P. seminatione. André |

Taxonomic comment at Fauna Europaea http://www.faunae...?id=405392: "seminationis is a noun in the genitive case (from 'seminatio') and does not change according to the gender of genus name (neutrum in Platystoma)."

That was my comment! I have studied the case very carefully and arrived at the conclusion that "is" is the correct ending for the reason it is not an adjective in nominative case, but a noun (?) in the genitive case Edited by Nosferatumyia on 14-09-2013 21:16 Val |

Thank you, Valery. For sure, a take both names - P. seminationis (P. seminatione) - because both names are in use. Thank you a lot André |
