| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- The name Lachesis ruscinonensis is invalid, being a totally unnecessary replacement for the name Papilio lachesis Hübner, 1790 (Beitr. Schmett. 2 (3) : 70, pl. 3, figs P. 1, 2 - male) introduced by Oberthur & Houlbert through an unaccountable reversion to the idea prevalent over a hundred years earlier that tautonomy between generic and specific names was not permissible. The generic name Lachesis Oberthur & Houlbert is invalid under the Law of Homonymy, having been used as a generic name by four previous authors : (a) Lachesis Daudin, 1803, Mag. encyclop. 5 (20) : 435 ; also in Sonnini's Buffon, (Rept. 5 : 349) ; (b) Lachesis Risso, 1826, Hist. nat. Europ. 4 : 211 ; (c) Lachesis Audouin, 1826, in Savigny, Descr. Egypte 1 (4) (Explic. Pls, Arachn.) : III ; (d) Lachesis Saunders, 1871, Cat. Buprest. : 21 ; and, in error for Lachesilla Westwood (Psocoptera) by Hagen, 1861, Ent. Ann. 1861 : 22. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
