| Memo: | Nye (1975) stated:- A junior homonym of Delta Saussure, 1885, études Famille Vespides 3: 130, -Hymenoptera. The objective replacement name is Lepidodelta Viette, 1967. Viette, 1967, Faune Madagascar 20: 503, stated that as Delta Saussure was proposed as a name for a Division, it was not strictly nomenclaturally available. Viette nevertheless proposed his replacement name because a case had been submitted to the Commission asking them to declare as available the doubtful names of Saussure. In fact the Case No. Z.N.(S) 1689 published in 1967, Bull. zool. Nom. 24:27- 33, did not included Delta Saussure. The author of the case J. Van der Vecht (Rijksuniversiteit, Leiden) an ealier letter to D. S. Fletcher (BMNH) in 1965 had stated that as Delta Saussure had been proposed in a subgeneric sense and was undoubtedly nomenclaturally available, there would be no need to included it in an application to the Commission. The 1972 amendment to Article 11(f) of the Code confirmed this view. See: LEPIDODELTA Viette, 1967. Poole (1989) included DELTA Saalmüller, 1891 (preoccupied) as a junior synonym of LEPIDODELTA Viette, 1967. |
