Bhattacharjee & al. (Prop. 014 in Taxon 63: 207. 2014) pointed out that authors generally do not have control over how dates of publication are indicated in periodicals and they proposed to insert the words “or editors” after the word “Authors” in Rec. 31B.1. However, in most cases, the date of publication is controlled by the publisher. On the other hand, the editors or the authors may at the same time be the publishers. Hence, I propose a small further amendment to extend this Recommendation to apply also to publishers.
