Here is the full citation of the "Tokyo Code" as I have it in my cv.  I
think you can edit this in any way you please;  [incidentally, by "o<\",
is meant the Norwegian o with a slash through it]:

Greuter, W., F.R. Barrie, H.M. Burdet, W.G. Chaloner, V. Demoulin, D.L.
Hawksworth, P.M. Jo</rgensen, D.H. Nicolson, P.C. Silva, P. Trehane and J.
McNeill (eds.).  1994.  International Code of Botanical Nomenclature
(Tokyo Code).  Adopted by the Fifteenth International Botanical Congress,
Yokohama, August -- September 1993.  (Regnum veg. 131).  Koeltz Scientific
Books, K?nigstein, Germany.  xviii + 389 pp.


You might even want to know about the German edition:-

Greuter, W., F.R. Barrie, H.M. Burdet, W.G. Chaloner, V. Demoulin, D.L.
Hawksworth, P.M. Jo</rgensen, D.H. Nicolson, P.C. Silva, P. Trehane and J.
McNeill (eds.).  1995.   Internationaler Code der Botanischer Nomenklatur
(Tokio Code), angenommen durch den f?nfzehnten Internationalen Botanischen
Kongre?, Yokohama, August-September 1993.  Ins Deutsche ?bertragen von W.
Greuter & P. Hiepko.  (Englera 15).  Botanischer Garten und Botanisches
Museum Berlin-Dahlem.  xxi + 150 pp.


Incidentally, your 1988 citation is somewhat inaccurate: it is the
"Fourteenth International Botanical Congress" (not "Congress of Botany");
moreover, it has "xiv + 328" pages.

Hope this helps,  John McNeill
