Abstract
SummaryBoletus Dill, ex L.: Fr. presents a conserved type, Boletus edulis Bull.: Fr. Through application of Art. 7.20 it is fortunately possible to maintain Dillenius and Linnaeus in the author citation. However, for names that are not sanctioned, Art. 14.8 is currently interpreted as severing the link with the original author in case of type conservation. This practice in contradiction with Art. 47 stems from an error of the Editorial Committee of the Montreal Code. Suggestions are made to reestablish a logical wording of Art. 14.8.It is established that the typification of Suillus Micheli ex Adanson by Palm and Stewart (1984) is to be superseded and S. luteus (L.: Fr.) S. F. Gray reestablished as type of the genus.A modification of Art. 63 adopted at the Berlin congress does not make Leccinum superfluous anymore and its typification by L. aurantiacum (Bull.) S. F. Gray is accepted.
