| New combination (= combination novum.) | A named formed from a previous name. Usually a new combination involves moving a species epithet from one genus to another genus. For example, the species Cariniana decandra Ducke was considered to be a species of Allantoma by Huang et al. ((2008) so they coined the new combination Allantoma decandra (Ducke) Huang et al.. Note that the name of the author of the original name is retained in parentheses as part of the new name. |  |
