Nomenclatural Notes
Status: nom. inval.
as 'Polycarpeae'
Remarks
For the family 'Illecebreae', Beilschmied implicitly proposed 'Sect.... c) Polycarpeae' at the rank of a subfamily. Although Polycarpeae is correctable to Polycarpaoideae, his misapplication of the abbreviated term 'Sect.' pertains to a rank higher than genus, and therefore, Beilschmied’s intended subfamily name was not validly published (see ICN Arts. 3.1, 4.1, 37 Ex. 7). Furthermore, Beilschmied was inconsistent in using the endings, '-eae' and '-aceae' for both family and infrafamilial names.
