Changes in plant names have caused considerable confusion among the Botanists, Foresters, Horticulturists, cultivators and others. As soon as a person gets used to a particular name or a set of names, he has to make an effort to try and get used to a completely different set. This article deals with the principles of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature and describes how changes have brought about in the generic and specific names of different plants during the course of time. Examples of such changes have also been given in the paper.- New Distributional Records of Eleven Plants in India, Nepal and Burma

History of the nomenclatural complications in the genus Capillipedium Stapf has been reviewed. Reasons for name changes in certain species have been discussed. Six Indian species namely C. paruiflorum ( Br.) Stapf, C. subrepens (Steud.) Henr., C. hugelii ( Hack.) Camus, C.foetidum ( Lisboa) Raizada and Jain, C.filiculmis ( Hook. F. ) Stapf and C. pteropechys ( Clarke) Stapf have been described and illustrated. A new name C.faetidum (Lisboa) Raizada and Jain, based on Andropogon hugeZii Hack. Var.faetidus Lisboa, has been proposed. A statement of name changes in Indian species from Hooker's ( 1896) time onwards has been given in tabular form.

This work deals with the grasses of 'The Upper Gangetic Plain', covering an area of approximately 196,000 square miles, namely the states of Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Ajmer-Merwara, East Rajasthan, Vindhya Pradesh and Madhya Bharat (Places above 2,300 ft. have been excluded ). After discussing some aspects of ecology and the evolution of the grasses, forest and grassland climates, indicator value of grasses, grazing problems and improvement of fodder supplies, two hundred and fifty species belonging to about one hundred genera found in the area have been enumerated. Since considerable nomenclatural confusion exists in the Gramineae, efforts have been made to follow the rules of nomenclature and to adopt the most recent names as far as practicable. Three new names, viz., Erianthus procerum (Roxb.) Raizada, Themeda longispatha ( Hack. ) Raizada et Jain and Cymbopogon stracheyi (Hk. f.) Raizada et Jain have been proposed. The present work is based chiefly on the material deposited in the Dehra Dun Herbarium and is the first consolidated account of the Gramineae of 'The Upper Gangetic Plain, and of the adjacent Siwalik and the Sub-Himalayan tracts'.- A Botanical Visit to Mount Abu

Indian Forester, Vol 80, No 7 (1954), Pagination: 379-389Abstract
The Gir forest, more popularly known as the only remaining home of the Asiatic lion in India, has an area of about 500 square miles. The authors who are concerned with the Gir forest vegetation, studied it in the month of October, when it is rich in herbaceous plants and tall grasses. Teak is the main forest tree which, however, except in specially managed areas consists of crooked trees as a result of maltreatment. Terminalia crenulata is next in importance and then come Wrightia tinctoria, Dalbergia latifolia and Sterculia urens, whereas the gregarious Acacia arabica and Zizyphus nummularia constitute the thorny scrub. Grouped near the villages are the Tamarind, the banyan, Bassia and ornamental trees such as Delonix regia and Erythrina suberosa. Near the Hiran River Saccharum spontaneum is conspicuous. The buffalo population of the Gir is far too much for the available grazing and various regulations have been made to control the numbers. The local shepherds called Maldaris are however, a dwindling race due to incidence of diseases and high degree of sterility. Apparently the people best suited for the conditions are some Negroes who came to India a long time ago Much attention has recently been given by the forest department to conservation of water by means of small dams, over 5,000 in number, and to planting of useful kinds of trees. New plantations of teak, Salmalia malabarica and Terminalias are coming up. Such measures together with control on buffalo population should bring about a good forest growth in the Gir. Appended to the paper is a list of over 400 plant species collected in the area. It is arranged according to the system followed in the Flora of British India and similar works, with the names brought up-to-date as far as possible according to rules of botanical nomenclature. No attempt has been made to give descriptions as these are easily available in standard floras.- A Diagnostic Key to the Various forms of Introduced Mesquite (Prosopis juliflora Dc.)

This paper embodies the results of 'research' spread over a period of several years and gives the up-to-date correct botanical names, in accordance with the latest International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, of about 815 common Indian plants. Immediately below the correct names are given important synonyms. Attempt has been made throughout to follow the Principle of Priority, which is of fundamental importance in Taxonomy. When a name other than the usual one has been adpoted, the basionym on which the new name is based has been invariably given. For the sake of convenience and facilitate reference the names have been arranged alphabetically and an index provided at the end so that workers acquainted with more familiar names, commonly in use at present, may be able to trace easily the correct names. The following 22 new combination have been made :- Argyreia atropurpurea (Wall. ) ; A.barbata ( Wall. ) ; A.bella ( Clarke) ; A.bracteosa (Clarke) ; A.confusa (Prain); A.hirsutissima (Wall.); A. longifolia (Coli. et Hemsl. ) ; A.mastersii ( Prain ) ; A.maymyo ( W. W. Smith); A.rubens (Wall. ) ; Bonamia elegans (Wall.); B. evolvuloides (Wight); Ecbotium viride (Forsk.) Alston var. dentata ( Clarke) ; E.viride ( Forsk. ) Alston var. latevirens ( Clarke) ; E. virid. ( Forsk. ) Alston var. rotundifolia ( Clarke) ; Grona simplidfolia ( Dalz.) ; Murdannia esculentum (Wall.); M.siennea (Blatter); M.terminalis (BI.); M.zeylanica ( CI. ) Bruck. var. longiscapa ( Clarke) ; Operculina petaloidea (Choisy) van Oosts. var. pauciflora ( Clarke) and Syzygium cerasoideum ( Roxb. ). Three new names have also been proposed : Garcinia talbotii for G.malabarica Talbot, Plectranthus beddomei for P.urticifolius Hk. f. and Commelina wightii for C.glabra (Wt.) Clarke, as they are pre-occupied by Garcinia malabarica Desr. ( 1789 ), P.urticifolius ( Lamk. ) Salisb. ( 1796) and C. glabra Meyer ( 1818) respectively and hence invalid according to rules.- A New Annonaceae from the Great Nicobar Island

Mussoorie has a very rich and varied flora. Nearly 1200 species of Phanerogams and 136 ferns have been reported from an area of about 120 sq. miles and between 3000-7,500 ft. Collett reports 1,326 species of flowering plants and 124 ferns frotn Simla but he takes into consideration an area of about 500 sq. miles with a range of altitude from 2-10,000 ft. On the whole the trees and shrubs of the two regions are the same but Mussoorie has about 20 inches more rain during the monsoon which makes possible a varied epiphytic flora of lichens, liverworts, mosses, ferns and higher plants. In addition Mussoorie is much richer in orchids, aroids, and Gesneraceae. Conifers are much less numerous and important about Mussoorie than they are in the Simla region. Only Pinus roxburghii (Pinus longifolia) is abundant. Quercus incana is the chief tree from 5,000 ft. to the top of the ridges. Most of the trees above 5,000 ft. are broad leaved sclerophylls as eight months of the year are comparatively dry. There is a great variety of trees and shrubs in the Sub-Himalayan tract from 3,000 ft. to the zone of the oaks but none are very large. Only Pinus raxburghii is common in pure stands. Although the collector is not likely to find new species of higher plants about Mussoorie there probably still remain a number of species to be found in the lower valleys which have not yet been listed as occurring in the area.- A New Bamboo from South India

In this paper the author has attempted to briefly discuss the various reasons why botanical names change so frequently. Synonymous plant names have been a source of trouble and confusion ever since plant names were given. This confusion has harassed botanists and cultivators alike, but the botanists have been the more sorely tried, in as much as they concern themselves with all sort of plant life whereas cultivators' interests are limited. There is, therefore, a widespread and legitimate dissatisfaction among professional botanists, foresters and others interested in the study of plants that plant names, both generic and specific, change much too often and has given rise to the common but erroneous idea that systematists have as their main object the upsetting of well established names. It is rather disheartening to find that the old familiar names by which a particular plant may have been known from ages is suddenly shifted to another genus or within the genus changes the specific name. This dissatisfaction has given rise to the demand from some quarters, particularly foresters and horticulturists, that an International Botanical Congress issue a list of Nomina Specifica Conservanda similar to the one already in existence for generic names. Up to the present, however, all International Botanical Congresses have refused to accede to this petition; such a step would interfere with the free progress of botanical science. The author further discusses in some detail the Rules of Botanical Nomenclature which govern the procedure for naming of plants. Finally he ends the paper by an earnest appeal to all Indian Botanists to study the Code carefully and become conversant with its provisions so that they individually and the Country may reap the honour of their discoveries.- Future of Floristic Studies and Preservation and Conservation Needs of Rare, Endangered and Vanishing Plants of India
