They are the official abbreviations of the names of authors in botany, such as they are usually used in vegetable Taxinomie (Phycologie and Mycologie included), science which has the aim of describing the living organisms and to gather them in entities called Taxons (families, kinds, species, etc) in order to be able to name them (see botanical Nomenclature) and to classify them (systematic).

They appear in particular following the Nom binominal of plants or mushrooms, to indicate in a shortened way the author (or “inventor”), i.e. the person who, the first, described a new species. The names of the people having operated a change of kind, taxinomic epithet or row are also mentioned.

Note: The use differs in Zoologie where only the author original, not shortened is quoted. The possible homonyms are generally distinguished by the initial one from the first name.
