Default Re: Musella Lasiocarpa now a Musa

Well, that site is from 2002 and I don't know if all botanists would accept that. I know that I don't accept it( and I am just a few years away from having a degree and being an actual Botanist by profession). I am very skeptical about this also, because I haven't seen a scientific journal article about it. That is what I really use to go by when it comes to changes in nomenclature like that.

Gabe- had you seen this before? What does Markku say about it?
