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
