Code, is to suggest a possible interpretation of Article 1.3.2 in relation to the
availability of the generic name Cornu Born, 1778 for a genus of land snails (family
HELICIDAE). There has been longstanding confusion regarding the correct generic
combination for the well-known, common and widely introduced land snail originally
described as Helix aspersa Müller, 1774, that is, whether it should be placed in
Cornu Born, 1778, Cantareus Risso, 1826 or Cryptomphalus Charpentier, 1837. The
confusion has arisen primarily because of differing interpretations of Article 1.3.2 in
relation to the original proposal of the genus-group name Cornu Born, 1778 for the
species Cornu copiae Born, 1778, which was based on a teratological specimen of
Helix aspersa Müller, 1774. It is proposed that the wording of Article 1.3.2 be
interpreted to confirm the availability of Cornu Born, 1778.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Case</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">97</style></section></record></records></xml>
