The Nomenclature Commission is defined and composed as in the 3rd edition of ICPN in JVS 11, 2000, p. 738 and 764.
The Commission is composed of:
- a standing committee

Activities of the Commission
Beside caring about the code and stating names to be conserved, rejected, inversed or changed, the activity of the Commission involves also the registration of the new names of syntaxa and the registration of the typifications of names older than 1979.
