Wrong. See 51.3.2 in the new ACZN Code: "The use of parentheses enclosing
the name of the author and the date is not affected by the presence of a
subgeneric name, by transfer to a different subgenus within the same genus,
by a change of rank within the species group, or by transfer of a
subspecies to a different species within the same genus." The example
given in the code shows that the above suggestion is definitely incorrect.
