| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- The name Tmetoglene was published in July 1862 as a replacement of the name Brachyglenis published in the same serial in March of that year. This substitution was made because the two Felders erroneously believed that the name Brachyglenis was invalid under the Law of Homonymy. The older name those authors had in mind was Brachyglene Herrich-Schaeffer, [1856] (Samml. aussereurop. Schmett. Het. : 19, 20), the name of a genus of moths. Under the present revised Code (Article 56 (a)) these names are not homonyms of one another. Accordingly, the name Brachyglenis of March 1862 is an available name and its replacement Tmetoglene of July 1862 is invalid as a junior objective synonym. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
