| Memo: | Nye & Fletcher (1991) stated:- Bradley, 1966, Entomologist's Gaz. 17: 226, showed that Phalaena heracliana Linnaeus sensu Fabricius, 1775, Syst. Ent.: 655 (published by Fabricius as * Heracleana, an incorrect subsequent spelling) was a misidentification and that the first available name for the misidentified species is Haemilis pastinacella Duponchel, 1838. Under the Code (Edn 3), Article 70(b), the case of a misidentified type-species is to be refered to the Commisssion to fix as the type-species whichever nominal species will 'bets serve stability and universality of nomenclature'. We suggest that the Commission be asked to designate as the type-species of Volucra Latreille the nominal species actually involved, namely Haemilis pastinacella Duponchel, 1838. Unavaialble designation of type-species: Phalaena heracliana sensu Fabricius, 1775 [=Haemilis pastinacella Duponchel, 1838] (cited as * Heracleana Fabricius, an incorrect subsequent spelling) was designated by Boisduval, 1836, Hist. nat. Insectes (Spec. gén. Lépid.) 1: 119. In the Introduction to the volume, pages 1-154, Boisduval designated up to three different type-species for each generic name. In his 'Exposé de notre Méthod', pages 155-690, no type-species designation was made for any of the genera that he himself used. Under the Code (Edn 3), Article 69(a)(iv), 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 the author accepts it as the type-species'. Boisduval's type-species designations, although clearly stated, do not fulfil the last requirement and so are unavailable. Even though Boisduval's 1836 work was well known to lepidopterists the type-designations in it have not been accepted by authors. A junior objective synonym of Depressaria Haworth, 1811. |
