| Memo: | Watson, Fletcher & Nye (1980) stated:- A junior objective synonym of Pheosia Hübner, [1819]. Invalid type-species designation: Phalaena dictaea Linnaeus, 1767, was designated by Boisduval, 1836, Hist. nat. Insectes (Spec. gén. Lepid.) 1: 142. In the Introduction to the volume, pages 1-154, Boisduval reviewed earlier classifications of Lepidoptera and designated as many as three different type-species for each generic name. In his `Exposé de notre méthode', pages 155-690, no type-species designation was made for any of the genera that himself used. Under the Code, Article 69(a)(iii), the type-species designation of an author is eligible for consideration if he states that it is the type `... and if it is clear that he himself accepts it as the type-species'. Boisduval's type-designations, although clearly stated, do not fulfil the last requirement and so are invalid. Even though Boisduval's 1836 work was well known to lepidopterists, the type-designations contained in it have not been accepted, either by Hemming or by other authors. The acceptance of Boisduval's type-species designation in the case of Leiocampa would make no difference to the generic concept. Leiocampa was again proposed by Stephens, 1829 [June], Nom. Br. Insects: 39; and 1829 [July], Syst. Cat. Br. Insects (2): 42. |
