Lann et al. PhytoKeys 45: four (205)Nomination of RapporteurG al for the XVIIIth International Botanical Congress Chaloner indicated that the Nominating Committee had no good difficulty in suggesting McNeill as RapporteurG al the following time round, although he thought the organizers from the subsequent Congress, which he understood will be in Australia, might have some say within the matter. McNeill stated that this was the decision on the Section. The organisers of the next Congress would appoint the rest with the Bureau on Nomenclature, but the RapporteurG al was to be appointed now by this body. Chaloner thanked McNeill for the correction, and he hoped that if he had misinformed his Committee the members could be equally satisfied with that information. [Laughter.] McNeill added that if this have been authorized the Australians would be lumbered with him. The nomination for the position of RapporteurG al in the next Congress was then authorized. [Applause.]Report on botanical nomenclature Vienna 2005: committee reportsTenth Session Saturday, six July 2005, four:006.Reports of your Permanent Committees Nicolson proposed that if there was a vote questioning a particular item arising in the Reports it ought to call for a 60 majority. That was the percentage used by the Committees and inside the sessions of your Section and he Caerulein web wished to propose that. He also wished to suggest if it be the will in the Section that there ought to be some sort of a limit, possibly 05 comments on a certain item after which the Section will be ready to vote. He then proposed 5. This procedure and number of comments was authorized. Gereau wished to confirm that if the Section was questioning the Report of a Committee, this was a 60 vote to approve the Report. Nicolson stated it was 60 to overturn a Report. McNeill clarified that it was 60 to reverse a recommendation within a Report as that would currently happen to be approved by 60 inside the Committees. Committee for Algae Silva, Chair from the Committee, reported that as constituted in St Louis the Committee was properly balanced each taxonomically and geographically. The amount of proposals to conserve generic names had decreased, though these to conserve or reject distinct names had enhanced. Four reports had been published [in Taxon PubMed ID:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27020720 48: 884. 999; 52: 33940. 2003; 53: 065067. 2004; and 54: 52324. 2005]. The Committee also advisable that Helminthopsis Heer (fossil) and Helminthiopsis J. Agardh (red algae) be treated as confusable. The Committee had supported two proposals to modify the Code created on its behalf, but not a single to abandon later starting points for the nomenclature of CyanobacteriaCyanophyta. It had also recommended that a Special Committee be set up with delegates in the International Association for Cyanophyta Study to perform towards harmonization in the nomenclature of bluegreen prokaryotes below the two pertinent Codes. The Report of your Committee was accepted. Hawksworth wondered no matter if the proposed Particular Committee need to be setup collectively using the International Commission around the Systematics of Prokaryotes, the counterpart from the Section, instead of name a particular Association. Demoulin hoped to be on that Committee and would make sure that apart from the individuals working on this group there must be a single individual involved in each in the two Codes. McNeill stated that representation around the botanical side would be lastly appointed by the Common Committee, but it will be foolish not to take on board those people today keen and anxious to work in it.C.
