[Taxacom] New genus name in title

This is a bit of an ignorant question, but did not find an answer in the
code of zoological nomenclature (not to say that it is not there, just that
I have not seen it). I would be interested to know what the code says about
a new genus being mentioned in the title of a paper before it is actually
described and diagnosed within the paper. Is it permissible by the code?

Many thanks,

John Grehan
