A suggestion on how to name species honoring non-binary people without breaking tradition

The purpose of this note is to suggest additions to the Latin genitive suffixes present in Article 31.1.2 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, to include non-binary people in the regulation of species-group names formed from modern personal names. Use of the suffixes of the third declension of the Latin genitive is proposed.
