Memo: Hemming (1967) stated:- Distant introduced this name as "Remelana M.S." in the synonymy Tajuria Moore, [1881], where therefore it will need to stand as an objectively invalid junior synonym. Cowan (1970: 31) stated:- "REMELANA" Distant, [Aug.] 1884, Rhop. Malayana : 244, 246. Not available. Distant cited this name as "Remelana Moore ms." in the synonymy of Tajuria Moore, 1881. As Hemming, 1967 : 394 shows, Remelana Moore was validly published in [June] 1884 and is available. "Remelana Distant" has never been adopted and is not available. Had the chronology been reversed and the relevant portion of Distant's book preceded Moore's paper, the situation would still be the same. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008).
