Recently a proposal was published to unify Rules 7, 8 and 9 of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Based on this proposal, all names of taxa above the rank of genus must be in the feminine gender, the plural number. For the rank of class, this proposal contravenes Principle 3 of the Code, which states that the scientific names of all taxa are treated as Latin. The -ia ending of most names of classes belongs to nominative plural nouns of the neuter gender.
最近发表了一项关于统一《国际原核生物命名法规》第7、8和9条规则的提案。根据该提案，属级以上分类单元的所有名称必须为阴性复数形式。对于纲级分类单元，此提案违反了《法规》的原则3，该原则规定所有分类单元的学名均视为拉丁语。大多数纲名的词尾-ia属于中性的主格复数名词。
