[Aroid-l] Dracunculus and Dracunculus

From: "Marek Argent" <abri1973 at wp.pl> on 2010.09.02 at 23:54:37(21367)
Hello,
While searching the web for documents I found something that made me scared.
Besides Dracunculus vulgaris and Dracunculus canariense, which we almost all heard about,
I found a document mentioning different species of Dracunculus which are... Nematodes:

Is it admissible for two quite different unrelated taxa to bear the same generic name?
???
