Comment:
although the genus
Cajanus
DC. was formerly (Berlin ICBN App. IIIA) treated as conserved over the rejected
Cajan
Adans., since the Vienna ICBN the two are treated as orthographic variants, with
Cajanus
Adans. '
Cajan
the conserved spelling', such that Huth's binomial is no longer a tautonym (
Shenzhen ICN
Art. 23.4), his generic spelling being correctable under
Shenzhen ICN
Art. 61.4
