Taxacom: demystifying gender agreement ( was Re: Removals of offending scientific names)

That is true. Exceptions are tricky in any language. But they also make it fun. And there is always Stearn’s invaluable “Botanical Latin”!

> The general rules are easy enough, yes, but the exceptions are tricky. It isn't always as simple as -us, -a, -um. How many taxonomists know that minus is the neuter form of minor? What about pulcher vs. pulchra? Also, the apparent gender of many genera, like the spider genus Abba, is not straightforward. Abba can be feminine, but not because of the final 'a', which is not a suffix as in Giraffa. It can be any gender.
