Talk:pandanus

I think this is a taxonomic name, and should be a proper noun. --Volants 19:25, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

No, the taxonomic name is (deprecated template usage) Pandanus. The word pandanus is the everyday common name for the plants in English. It's a bit like (deprecated template usage) Geranium versus geranium (which incidentally are not always the same thing). --EncycloPetey 19:33, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
