| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- The taxon represented by the nominal species Pathalia albidisca Moore is currently treated subjectively on taxonomic grounds as being the same as that represented by the nominal species Megisba sikkima Moore, 1884 (loc. cit. 53 (1) : 21). As these names were published on the same date and in the same work - actually on the same page - the relative precedence to be accorded to them depends on the choice made by the First Reviser. This choice was made in 1932 (Ident. Ind. Butts (ed. 2) : 220) by Evans who accepted the specific name sikkima Moore, at the same time sinking the name albidisca Moore as a synonym of sikkima, the taxon so recognized being treated as a subspecies of Megisba malaya (Horsfield, [1828]) (Lycaena malaya Horsfield, [1828]). Under the Code (Article 24 (a)) the effect of Evans's action is to give precedence to the specific name sikkima Moore and to make the name albidisca Moore a junior subjective synonym of that name. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
