Abstract
Errors and ambiguities in the nomenclature of dyes and fluorescent probes are surveyed and illustrated by case examples. The unfortunate practical consequences of such mistakes are summarized. Origins and causes of such errors are discussed. Recommendations are appended for end-users, vendors, and editors of learned journals, and those who referee their manuscripts.
