This is correct. The table names from the union branches are not in
scope for the order by. Consider this case
select cnd.cod_spe from cnd
union
select cnd.cod_spe from (select relname from pg_class) as cnd (cod_spe)
order by cnd.cod_spe;
Which "cnd" is meant here? However, you should be able to write
order by cod_spe;
