- Abstract : The name M. dasycarpa is synonymous with M. velutina and has priority over this name. However, as the former name has been very rarely used we propose to conserve M. velutina against M. dasycarpa under Art. 14 of the ICBN to avoid confusion and to stabilise Musa nomenclature. Outright rejection of M. dasycarpa under Art. 56 is an alternative nomenclatural solution that has not been proposed here.
