Biological Nomenclature
The nomenclature of Prokaryotes is not independent of virological, botanical and zoological nomenclature. When naming new taxa in the rank of genus or higher, due consideration is to be given to avoiding names which are regulated by the "International Code of Virus Classification and Nomenclature", the "International Code of Botanical Nomenclature", the "International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants" and the "International Code of Zoological Nomenclature".
Listings of names can be found in the online databases given below.
