These codes differ in terminology, and there is a long-term project to "harmonize" this. For instance, the ICN uses "valid" in "valid publication of a name" (=the act of publishing a formal name), with "establishing a name" as the ICZN equivalent. The ICZN uses "valid" in "valid name" (="correct name"), with "correct name" as the ICN equivalent ...
This list of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names is intended to help those unfamiliar with classical languages to understand and remember the scientific names of organisms. The binomial nomenclature used for animals and plants is largely derived from Latin and Greek words, as are some of the names used for higher taxa , such ...

The ICPN, or PhyloCode, is a code of rules and recommendations for phylogenetic nomenclature. The ICPN only regulates clade names. Names for species rely on the rules of the traditional codes of nomenclature. The Principle of Priority (or "precedence") is claimed for names and for definitions within the ICPN. The starting point for priority was ...
