| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- Doubleday placed in this genus two other nominal species besides Eunice taurione, but against the names of each of the two other nominal species he placed a mark of interrogation, thus indicating that he referred these species to this genus only doudtfully. This action of Doubleday's rendered both of these species ineligible for selection as type-species (Article 67 (h)). E. taurione, as the only nominal species unequivocally placed in this genus by Doubleday, accordingly becomes automatically its type-species by monotypy. The name Amycla Doubleday is invalid as it is a junior homonym of Amycla Rafinesque, 1815 (Analyse de la Nature : 118). The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
