| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- As explained in the immediately preceding entry there is an older name Creteus Westwood, [1852], but under a provision (Article II (d)) introduced into the present revised Code a name published in a synonymy, as was the name Creteus Westwood, acquires no status of availability thereby. Accordingly, the name Creteus de Niceville is not invalid under the Law of Homonymy. Prior to the introduction into the Code of the foregoing provision, the name Creteus de Niceville was rejected under the Law of Homonymy and was replaced by the name Cyrina Hemming, 1939 ; in the altered circumstances described above that replacement name has become a junior objective synonym of Creteus de Niceville. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
