Summary A review of the main results of the discussions on botanical nomenclature at the Eleventh International Botanical Congress at Seattle, 22–24 August 1969. The International Code of Botanical Nomenclature remains practically unchanged. Minor amendments include a restriction of the phenomenon of ‘automatically created tautonyms’ (to be called autonyms), a further precision of the rules concerning names of hybrids, and a loosening of the rule governing superfluous names.
