Abstract:

We read with interest the recent publication by de Hoog and colleagues in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology (1) and support the goal to stabilize fungal nomenclature. Although we recognize the importance of stable naming, we offeroffercomments on the need for clarity around the concepts introduced, consistency of the recommended nomenclature, process issues regarding the endorsement by professional groups and societies and the proposed oversight committee (working group), and the relationship between the proposed database and existing, officially recognized nomenclatural repositories.
