pot01 | Although the IPCN allows the use of shorter forms (Potametea, Potametalia, Potamion) of the names derived from the genus Potamogeton, we see no reason why this particular genus should receive special treatment and therefore prefer using names conforming to the general rules of name creation as dictated by ICPN. (K. Dierssen, L. Mucina).
