Hello, Anne, Greg, List (old message that didn't  post properly, sort of a 
'synonym' superceded by my post to  Martin),

Anne, I must disagree.  A synonym in biology is "A  scientific name of an 
organism or of a taxonomic group that has been  superseded by another name at 
the same rank.".  While you may be  thinking about the non-scientific 
"synonym", or the type of synonym used in  botany which leaves room for 
interpretation in classification, I expect the  NomCom has a steadfast  
policy.

Hello Doug,
 
(your first email did come thru).
 
In a much, much simpler way, I am saying that the synonym (or alternative  
name) does exist, it is known and even recorded in a official site / document.
