Comment:
recommendation of Stearn, Botanical Latin ed. 4:261. 1992 followed in retaining original spelling (except ending, which must agree with gender of generic name): "The initial
ρ
of a Greek word transliterated as
rh
, e.g.
rhiza
(
ριζα
, root, rhizome), should have an additional
r
added to it when preceded by a vowel, e.g.
Glycyrrhiza
(
γλυκυρριζα
, liquorice, from
γλυκος
, sweet,
ριζα
, root),
leptorrhiza
(
λεπτορριζα
, with a thin root, from
λεπτος
, small, slender), but as many reputable authors, Linnaeus among them, have omitted this additional
r
, it is best regarded as optional and an author's original spelling, as in
Lemna polyrhiza
, should be accepted."
