Abstract

A rebuttal to the proposal to conserve Selaginella, nom. cons., with a conserved type is submitted. We further discuss why this proposal is unwarranted and disruptive to nomenclatural stability as is the intention to split Selaginella since potentially segregated genera fail to reconcile monophyly and taxonomic diagnosability. Accordingly, we recommend the rejection of the Proposal (2943) and not to follow the dismembering of Selaginella.

反驳"(2943)关于保护 Selaginella，nom. cons.，(Selaginellaceae)保护类型的建议"：毫无根据的破坏性想法

我们提交了对保护 Selaginella（Selaginella，nom. cons. ）的建议的反驳。我们进一步讨论了为什么该建议是没有根据的，并且破坏了命名法的稳定性，就像拆分 Selaginella 的意图一样，因为潜在的分离属无法协调单系性和分类学的可诊断性。因此，我们建议否决该提案（2943），不要继续肢解 Selaginella 属。
