Note on Tricholoma / Lyophyllum aggregatum

Words of the type Tricholome agrégé (French) were encountered in the reputable references. I am not criticizing but merely pointing out a common problem encountered in plant nomenclature. Lexicographers can get carried away and succumb to the temptation to translate the botanical Latin of the scientific name into one or several languages. This works some of the time with some languages but not always. I am taking this opportunity to point out a good example of a case where it does not work. Please let me know when I am guilty of a similar offense. I am not apologising, as I mentioned earlier the temptation is too often irresistible.

The Latin word "aggregatum" means "aggregated", "clustered" or "bunched" in English, "grappolo" and "gruppo" come to mind in Italian, "Büschel" in German, "agrupar" & "agregado" may fit the purpose in Spanish and "en bouquet", "aggloméré" or "groupé" in French, "agrégé " on the other hand has a totally different common meaning related to the world of academia. In French the fungus Lyophyllum aggregatum is more likely to be named as "Tricholome en agrégat" or "Tricholome en bouquet". This form is more common in French plant names than the combination name + adjective commonly encountered in English. In conclusion I would propose ENGLISH : Clustered tricholoma and FRENCH : Tricholome en agrégat, Tricholome en bouquet. One can then argue that these names are not "common" because they are not commonly used. I would maintain that they have their place in such a glossary because they truely are of the respective languages. If "agrégé " is commonly used it should be pointed out that it is not "correct" by most other criteria.
