- W4243076516 abstract "I REGRET to learn that one of my remarks has proved obscure to zoologists. A note by Linnæus that nomen specificum sine generico est quasi pistillum sine campana is accompanied by a cross reference to the denominational canon nomen specificum sine generico est quasi campana sine pistillo. The generalisation of the exemplar lends emphasis to the axiom embedded in the canon. That axiom was almost universally accepted by botanists in Great Britain until 1905, when representatives of their science, in international congress assembled, decided by a majority vote that the two portions of a nomen specificum may receive differential treatment. I am satisfied that, in reaching this conclusion, the botanists who constituted the majority when that vote was taken abandoned sound scientific principles and retreated from a philosophical position secured by Linnæus for botany. It may be that zoologists regard as justifiable the botanical practice which ignores the axiom accepted here until 1905; if so, there is no more to be said. But, that further misunderstanding be avoided, I may explain that I accept the principle of government by majority: whatever be the merit in civic life of conscientious objection and passive resistance, I regard both as unsuitable methods in descriptive science. This does not deprive me of the right, when dealing with the teaching of Linnæus, to express my conviction that the practical application of a particular Linnean canon which prevailed before 1905 was sound, and that the alternative practice, which obtains in botany to-day, is less satisfactory. I may add that I have not had in mind any of the methods in use in the denomination of individuals, but the teaching of an English naturalist, contemporary with Linnæus, in respect of analogous reasoning." @default.
