Inclusion of "Cleland" in binomial name

[edit]

Is this scientifically correct practice? I see that the species was discovered by John Burton Cleland, but I've never seen the species referred to as "Psilocybe Subaeruginosa Cleland", and I'm not aware of this naming format being commonplace.

EDIT: Asked my plant science professor, he said this was technically correct practice. However, the same naming format does not seem to be in use for any other Psilocybe species on Wikipedia. Perhaps it should be changed for consistency? I'm not going to edit it, and it is a minor issue, however I thought it might be worth pointing out.
