ROMOS
While in the plant kingdom, the latin scientific name Morus refers to mulberries, the same name in the animal kingdom is used for the seabirds called gannets. Historically there have been different rules of nomenclature for naming plants and animals. Within each group, genus level synonyms were not permitted but they were permitted across kingdoms. With the development of large computer databases covering all life forms (e.g. GBIF), these synonyms do pose a problem and it is now recommended in the nomenclatural rules that new genus names are chosen to be unique across all forms of life.
