Taxonomic notes:
The change in the status of the name Rubus sanctus Schreber to Rubus creticus Tourn. ex L. in the 2021 article by Govaerts, Nic Lughadha, Black, Turner, and Paton is based on botanical nomenclature rules.

The detailed explanation is as follows:

  • Principle of Priority: The name Rubus creticus was described by Tournefort and validly published by Linnaeus in 1756 in his work "Flora Palaestina." This means that Rubus creticus is the earlier and valid name.
  • Superfluous Name (Nomen Superfluum): Rubus sanctus was published by Schreber in 1766. However, when Schreber published this name, he quoted Tournefort's 1703 description for Rubus creticus: "Rubus creticus, triphyllo, flore parvo" (Cretan bramble, three-leaved, small-flowered). According to Article 52.3 of the International Code of Nomenclature for Algae, Fungi, and Plants (ICN), when a new name is published for a taxon for which a legitimate name has already been published, and the new name includes the type of the older name, this new name is considered "superfluous" and therefore "illegitimate."
  • Homotypic Synonymy: This situation means that Rubus creticus and Rubus sanctus are homotypic synonyms, referring to the same taxon; that is, they are both based on the same type specimen. According to the rules, the earlier published valid name is preferred.
This nomenclatural change was made to ensure stability in botanical nomenclature and to comply with the rules of priority for names.
