Taxacom: Acridocarpus Malphigaceae common name

[John Grehan]

Thanks. It's not really critical. I am playing around with a draft title to
a paper (and my draft titles can be like fashions - they come and they go)
which is currently focused on common names for several taxa along with
their proper family names - e.g. "Mesozoic vicariance, not chance
dispersal, best explains New Caledonia-western Indian Ocean sister group
relationships of hawk moths (Sphingidae), Acridocarpus (Malphigaceae), palm
trees (Ceridoxylaceae) and fruit doves (Columbidae)" I may end up tossing
this either to use scientific names only, or something else.
