Taxacom: Removals of offending scientific names

Thu Jun 22 01:24:41 CDT 2023

Stephen has an excellent point in saying that eponyms honouring people guilty of egregious acts could function as a kind of warning memorial (the German word "Mahnmal" best encapsulates the essence of this)! As a personal experience, I had come across Verreaux's name in various contexts (Verreaux's eagle, sifaka etc.), but not paid much attention to who he was. Then I read the story of what he had done, and was left open-jawed in disbelief (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.co.uk%2Fnews%2Fmagazine-37344210&data=05%7C01%7Ctaxacom%40lists.ku.edu%7C3d7af6b418d7473db71008db72e9600b%7C3c176536afe643f5b96636feabbe3c1a%7C0%7C0%7C638230118938060340%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Rds%2F4%2BLbdBZAQ4osBs3HzTtB4Ck%2FLav0BucPlQ%2FkqW4%3D&reserved=0). I cannot imagine ever seeing Verreaux's name again without thinking of the colonial mindset that dehumanised the rightful occupants of the colonised lands to the point of surreptitiously disinterring, mounting and displaying them like just another hunting trophy.

Eponyms, presented in the right context, are potentially a very effective way of turning the tables on the colonialists of old by converting names intended for their glorification into reminders of their egregiousness. Focusing on this potential of inappropriate eponyms will, I suspect, be a more effective teaching aid and decolonisation tool than erasing them, and without the cost of instability resulting from the latter course of action.

Cheers,

Wolfgang

One could perhaps argue that being reminded of past "villains", via patronyms etc., is actually a good thing! It reminds us of the bad past so that we don't forget and make the same mistakes over again.
I'm not even sure why a patronym, say, Aus hitleri would be considered offensive? It doesn't promote Hitler's ideology in any obvious positive way. Why is it any more offensive than a book on history mentioning Hitler? Surely people don't want Hitler's name to be totally removed from any form of written record? Six million Jews were murdered on the orders of someone who shall not be mentioned!
As Scott has rightly pointed out, there might be some sense in putting greater controls on new patronyms (while leaving past patronyms unaffected). There might indeed be an issue with anyone who created a new Hitler patronym! One suggestion from me would be to require that patronyms are relevant to the new taxon and that the dedication spells this relevance out clearly, possibly with a disclaimer to the effect that the new name does not in any way endorse the personal views or unrelated activities of the person concerned. I'm sure that there must be at least some patronyms out there for people who held extremist views or ended up in prison for heinous crimes, but that is all irrelevant if the patronym was created because they were responsible for some relevant action which resulted in the new species being described.

 One of the problems in this debate, which I acknowledge is difficult to control, is that whenever the debate is started on a specific issue, eg colonialism, it gets expanded to include all other groups who feel they have a gripe against some issue. The pulled in issues may be very real I acknowledge that but they are not necessarily related to the original debate. By attempting to umbrella all the issues under one attempt to get rid of any name that may be offensive to someone achieves two things, it dilutes the points of the original debate, and creates more negative kickback against it. This just makes it more contentious and in all honesty less likely to achieve anything. I liked Neal`s point on left handedness, I am assuming it was tongue in cheek, but it shows how you can find anything that someone will dislike and attempt to attach it to another debate to try for a majority view, this usually backfires as I said, it only attracts more negativity to the original argument. It's basically a me-too approach from a philosophical perspective. I am not referring to the Me-Too movement there, it's another issue. The philosophical me too approach to a debate is the same as the whataboutism approach and the weakest debating techniques, it is doomed to failure. So to those who present these papers calling for this they are all making the same mistake, they are not constraining the argument and excluding the addition of other unrelated issues. To win a debate like this they must take control of the discussion and not allow the possibility of the me too philosophy as an answer, by addressing this and ruling it out in their initial paper, that failure to control the debate dooms their argument every time.

In past discussions of this I have said I have no issue if we as a community draw a line in the sand and say no more patronyms for example, but it cannot be retroactive. Making it retroactive interferes with the primary aim of the code which is stability.
I made this argument, among others against the renaming of the journal Copeia, I warned them that changing the name would cost them in their traction as a publishing entity. No doubt Edward Drinker Cope was not a good person in modern terms, but his name had little to do with the traction the journal had received after decades of usage, changing the name has cost the journal and to draw an analogy to nomenclature, it lost stability.
The majority of end users of taxonomy do not care why a species has a particular name, they just want it to be stable.

 I'm not sure how replacement of such names generates "justice"? It just makes people feel better who dislike the person the name was named after. Again, Roger Waters is a good example. He has 3 patronyms strongly connected with him (Pink Floyd). To some people, he is a human rights advocate. To others, he is an antisemite/Nazi. The existence of a few clear cases, like Hitler, for example, hides the fact that most cases are not at all clear cut. Of course the people who dislike Waters will claim that it is absolutely clear in his case, so then it becomes a heated debate about whether of not it is clear cut, with some people saying yes and others no. Do we really want biological nomenclature to be influenced by such complex and subjective sociopolitical debates? I think not!Stephen

 You’ve got to remove them to replace them. Pure logic. 😉

Guys, you made and you make the rules. No one stops you from changing them.
You have made worse changes in the rules from a taxonomic and nomenclatural
point of view than that in order to serve other interests and agendas.

Whatever change you do in the rules there is always going to be the same
number of people who are going to object.

The truth is that the Commission does not really care about those issues on
offensive names, as they said in their recent publication.

In the end, it is always the same battle, everywhere: the struggle between
conservatism and progress, justice or injustice. And that same struggle has
always been resolved in the same way, sooner or later.

But if we are not going to resolve injustice in our little fictional world
that no one cares about, where we have all the power to do whatever we
want, how we can expect to do the same in the real world where it matters?

At least Roger Waters was able to create a Wall that made sense. Maybe he
deserves an eponym because of that.

Sincerely,
Evan
