Colletotrichum fioriniae comb. & stat. nov., resolving a nomenclatural muddle

摘要

The widely used name "Colletotrichum fioriniae", published in 2009, is invalid; it is neither a valid new combination for "Colletotrichum acutatum var. fioriniae" (itself invalid) nor a valid new name, because no Latin diagnosis or description was presented or referenced.With the abolition of "dual nomenclature" (the separate nomenclatures of teleomorphs and anamorphs) under the current International Code of Nomenclature, it is now possible to publish Colletotrichum fioriniae as a new combination based on Glomerella acutata var. fioriniae,the only validly published name for this taxon.
