| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- An Unjustified Emendation of Gonepteryx [Leach], [1815]. If Goniapteryx Westwood had been a Justified Emendation of Gonepteryx [Leach], it would nevertheless have been invalid, as it is a junior homonym of Goniapteryx Perty, 1833 (Del. Anim. artic. Brasil (3) : 162). Cowan (1970: 36) stated:- GONIAPTERYX Westwood, 1840. An Unjustified Emendation, deliberately giving as a synonym the correct name Gonepteryx Leach, 1815. (If this had been a Justified Emendation, it would under Article 33a (i) have to be adopted as of Leach, 1815 and would invalidate Goniapteryx Perty, 1833). The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
