tetragonioides
Tetragonia tetragonioides (this is an incorrect spelling error and has to be corrected to Tetragonia tetragonoides according to the ICBN Article 60.8, Example 23)Occasionally wrongly corrected to "tetragonioides". ICBN: "Ex. 23. Tetragonia tetragonoides (Pall.) Kuntze (1891) was based on Demidovia tetragonoides Pall. (1781), the specific epithet of which was derived from the generic name Tetragonia and the suffix -oides. Since this is a compound epithet derived from a noun and a suffix, not two Greek or Latin words, it is not to be altered to “tetragonioides”. "
