[Taxacom] Correcting higher taxon terminations in botany ( a question of stems)

[dipteryx at freeler.nl]

I am with Ken Kinman (and Michael Heads) : under the 
ICNafp the formation of names above the rank of genus 
is governed by Art. 18.1 (at least all automatically 
typified names, which is most suprageneric names).

> Hi Tony,
>         The longer AlgaeBase names look correct to me.  It's probably similar to why we have Zygnematales (not Zygnemales).  It think it has something to do with "derma" being Greek and changing it to the genitive case.   Thus we have dermatologists, not dermologists.  Not sure what article in the Botanical Code would provide the exact reason.
