[Taxacom] Collecttive name for binomial + trinomial

[David Remsen (GBIF)]

An updated version of David Hawksworth, Terms of Bionomenclature,  
which we are in the process of publishing,  contains entries for

"Polynomial", "Polynominal", and "Multinominal" which might also be  
relevant

I'll post links to the PDF and web versions of the glossary when the  
final edits are in place.

Cheers,
David Remsen
