Combinatio nova

Term used in biological taxonomy for a "new combination"

Combinatio nova, abbreviated comb. nov., is Latin for "new combination". It is used in taxonomic biology literature when a new name is introduced based on a pre-existing name. The term should not be confused with species nova, used for a previously unnamed species. The new combination replaces the superseded combination.
