For folks like me who like to stay current with modern classification, but still find value in the older systems, I suggest in your communications/writing, use the lower case letters as Dylan did, or tackle on the word "group" Scilla = scilla(s) Asparagaceae (Themidaceae) = themids Cochicum = Cochicum in the Androcymbium group This way you avoid having to keep follow the newest and latest, but your communication will still make sense. New classifications are not going to go away any time soon. We're still learning how to deal with DNA data. Modern taxonomists are like kids learning how to play music. They haven't yet developed the methods to turn those notes into a well-developed piece of music. You'll just have to deal with the the ear-scratching sounds of practice until they mature enough skills to play something beautiful.
