International Commission on October 1966 Zoological Nomenclature Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries 194 Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature COMMENT ON THE PROPOSAL TO GIVE COLLIGNONICERAS BREISTROFFER, 1947, PRIORITY AS FROM 1876. Z.N.(S.) 1738 (see this volume, pages 57-59) By R. V. Melville (London) I support the underlying purpose of this proposal, but not the method whereby it is proposed to achieve it. The situation is that whereas Collignoniceras was proposed expressly as a replacement-name for Prionotropis Meek, 1876, non Fieber, 1853, Selwynoceras was not, and has a type-species which can never be the nominal type- species of Collignoniceras. Selwynoceras is therefore a valid replacement for Prionotropis Meek, non Fieber only for those who hold Ammonites woolgari Mantell and Prionotropis ? borealis Warren to be congeneric and consubgeneric. Wright and Matsumoto hold that for these palaeontologists, Collignoniceras Breistroffer, 1947, should have priority over Selwynoceras Warren and Stelck, 1940. This object could surely be achieved without going to the lengths of giving Colligno¬ niceras priority as from the date (1876) of the name it replaced, thereby accepting a particular case of a general rule that was struck out of the Code by the Washington (1963) Congress. It would be sufficient for the Commission, in placing Collignoniceras Breistroffer, 1947, on the Official List, to direct that it be given priority over Selwyno¬ ceras Warren and Stelck, 1940, by those authors who hold the two names to be syno¬ nymous at any level within the genus-group. COMMENT ON CHRYSOPINAE IN NEUROPTERA AND DIPTERA, Z.N.(S.) 1725 (see volume 22, pages 332-333) By Curtis W. Sabrosky (U.S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, D.C.) The proposal to distinguish the dipterous group by the spelling Chrysopsinae is reasonable and appropriate. Opinion 140 (1943) established a precedent for such cases, when it distinguished Meropidae from Merops and Meropeidae from Merope. For a similar proposal see Sabrosky and Zimmerman, 1966, Bull. zool. Nomencl. 23 : 46-47, who propose Trypetesinae and Trypetesini (from Trypetes Schoenherr) to avoid homonymy with group names based on Trypeta Meigen. The subfamily name Chrysopinae in Diptera dates from Lutz, 1905, Rev. Soc. Sci. Sao Paulo 1 : 21. Actually, the earliest use of a group name based on Chrysops antedates that based on Chrysopa, but it was in a vernacular form: Chrysopites Blanchard, 1840, Histoire naturelle des Insectes (volume 3 of Castelnau's Histoire naturelle des Animaux Articules): 588, 590. In a later work (1845, Histoire des Insectes 2 : 471, 474), Blanchard emended the name to Chrysopsites, still in the vernacular but foreshadowing the proposal by Tjeder. Chrysops should be recorded as of masculine gender on several grounds. It was decided by the Commission at its meeting in Washington in 1963 to issue a Declaration (still not formulated) that -ops names are to be considered of masculine gender (1964, Bull. zool. Nomencl. 21 : 172, Case 18). Furthermore, although the sole originally included species, caecutiens, did not indicate the gender of Chrysops, in Meigen's subsequent treatment of the genus (1820, Systematische Beschreibung der bekannten europaischen zweifliigeligen Insekten, 2 : 65-75), he clearly and consistently used Chrysops as masculine (italicus, relictus, pictus, quadratus, etc.). Still earlier, Fabricius (1805, Systema Antliatorum: 110-113) had also treated it as

A MARANTE Abstract A synonymyc catalogue for the species of Neotropical Crabronidae and Sphecidae is presented, including all synonyms, geographical distribution and pertinent references. The catalogue includes 152 genera and 1834 species (1640 spp. in Crabronidae, 194 spp. in Sphecidae), plus 190 species recorded from Nearctic Mexico (168 spp. in Crabronidae, 22 spp. in Sphecidae). The former Sphecidae (sensu Menke, 1997 and auct.) is divided in two families: Crabronidae (Astatinae, Bembicinae, Crabroninae, Pemphredoninae and Philanthinae) and Sphecidae (Ampulicinae and Sphecinae). The following subspecies are elevated to species: Podium aureosericeum Kohl, 1902; Podium bugabense Cameron, 1888. New names are proposed for the following junior homonyms: Cerceris modica new name for Cerceris modesta Smith, 1873, non Smith, 1856; Liris formosus new name for Liris bellus Rohwer, 1911, non Lepeletier, 1845; Liris inca new name for Liris peruanus Brèthes, 1926 non Brèthes, 1924; and Trypoxylon guassu new name for Trypoxylon majus Richards, 1934 non Trypoxylon figulus var. majus Kohl, 1883.

  • Jewel Bugs of Australia (Insecta, Heteroptera, Scutelleridae)1
    © Biologiezentrum Linz/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Jewel Bugs of Australia (Insecta, Heteroptera, Scutelleridae)1 G. CASSIS & L. VANAGS Abstract: The Australian genera of the Scutelleridae are redescribed, with a species exemplar of the ma- le genitalia of each genus illustrated. Scanning electron micrographs are also provided for key non-ge- nitalic characters. The Australian jewel bug fauna comprises 13 genera and 25 species. Heissiphara is described as a new genus, for a single species, H. minuta nov.sp., from Western Australia. Calliscyta is restored as a valid genus, and removed from synonymy with Choerocoris. All the Australian species of Scutelleridae are described, and an identification key is given. Two new species of Choerocoris are des- cribed from eastern Australia: C. grossi nov.sp. and C. lattini nov.sp. Lampromicra aerea (DISTANT) is res- tored as a valid species, and removed from synonymy with L. senator (FABRICIUS). Calliphara nobilis (LIN- NAEUS) is recorded from Australia for the first time. Calliphara billardierii (FABRICIUS) and C. praslinia praslinia BREDDIN are removed from the Australian biota. The identity of Sphaerocoris subnotatus WAL- KER is unknown and is incertae sedis. A description is also given for the Neotropical species, Agonoso- ma trilineatum (FABRICIUS); a biological control agent recently introduced into Australia to control the pasture weed Bellyache Bush (Jatropha gossypifolia, Euphorbiaceae). Coleotichus borealis DISTANT and C. (Epicoleotichus) schultzei TAUEBER are synonymised with C. excellens (WALKER). Callidea erythrina WAL- KER is synonymized with Lampromicra senator. Lectotype designations are given for the following taxa: Coleotichus testaceus WALKER, Coleotichus excellens, Sphaerocoris circuliferus (WALKER), Callidea aureocinc- ta WALKER, Callidea collaris WALKER and Callidea curtula WALKER.

Since then, many more specimens have become available for study, substantial papers on regional faunas have been published, and many revisions and other taxonomic changes have taken place. As a consequence, 40% of the names from the previous Missouri state list have changed or the taxa have been removed.

  • Catalogue of Type Specimens 4. Linnaean Specimens
    Uppsala University Museum of Evolution Zoology section Catalogue of type specimens. 4. Linnaean specimens 1 UPPSALA UNIVERSITY, MUSEUM OF EVOLUTION, ZOOLOGY SECTION (UUZM) Catalogue of type specimens. 4. Linnaean specimens The UUZM catalogue of type specimens is issued in four parts: 1. C.P.Thunberg (1743-1828), Insecta 2. General zoology 3. Entomology 4. Linnaean specimens (this part) Unlike the other parts of the type catalogue this list of the Linnaean specimens is heterogenous in not being confined to a physical unit of material and in not displaying altogether specimens qualifying as types. Two kinds of links connect the specimens in the list: one is a documented curatorial tradition referring listed material to collections handled and described by Carl von Linné, the other is associated with the published references by Linné to literary or material sources for which specimens are available in the Uppsala University Zoological Museum. The establishment of material being 'Linnaean' or not (for the ultimate purpose of a typification) involves a study of the history of the collections and a scrutiny of individual specimens. An important obstacle to an unequivocal interpretation is, in many cases, the fact that Linné did not label any of the specimens included in the present 'Linnaean collection' in Uppsala (at least there are no surviving labels or inscriptions with his handwriting or referable to his own marking of specimens; a single exception will be pointed out below in the historical survey). A critical examination must thus be based on the writings of Linné, a consideration of the relation between between these writings and the material at hand, and finally a technical and archival scrutiny of the curatorial arrangements that have been made since Linné's time.

    A reprint of Phasmid Studies 16(1 & 2) - September & December 2007. Biographies of Phasmatologists – 5. Carl Linnaeus. P.E. Bragg, 8 The Lane, Awsworth, Nottinghamshire, NG16 2QP, U.K. Abstract Carl Linnaeus is best known for his system of grouping and naming plants and animals that, in a modified form, is still in use today. Although he did little work on phasmids, his work is significant because he created the first scientific names of phasmids. His life and phasmid work is outlined. Keywords Phasmida, Phasmatologist, Carolus Linnaeus, Carl von Linné, Carl Linnaeus, Biography. Introduction Linnaeus was not really a phasmatologist, he described 4 species, and did not recognise them as a distinct group – they were not distinguished from the praying mantids. However, he is viewed as the founder of the system of biological nomenclature – the international system for naming animals and plants. Linnaeus was the first person to describe any phasmids under this system; this means that it could be argued that in 1758 he was the only phasmatologist in the world! Since 2007 is the 300th anniversary of his birth it seemed appropriate to include him in the series Biographies of Phasmatologists. As the founder of our system for naming organisms, it is somewhat ironic that there is often confusion over his name. When he was born, in Sweden, surnames were not in common use, so he was just known as Carl. When he needed a surname at university he adopted the surname Linnaeus; he chose a Latin name because this was the international language of Science at that time.

WASHINGTON: SMITIISOXIAN INSTITUTION. OCTODER, ISCS. This Report wpon the present state of knowledge of the Orthoptera of North America and the West Indies, has been prepared by Mr. S. H. Sciidder, at the request of this Institu- tion. The work is designed to call attention to a miich neg- lected order of our insects, and to facilitate their study by tlie student of Entomology. The Institution proposes at some future time, to publish Monographs of the Orthoptera of this Country, and, in \iew of this, would be pleased to receive specimens froni any quarter wliich may serve as material for investigation. JOSEPH HENRY, Secretary S. I. Accepted for Publication, July, 1867. PREFACE: In preparing this Catalogue, at the request of the Smith- sonian Institution, for the benefit of those who wish to examine our native Orthoptera, I have adopted a purely alphabetical arrangement. The list is not in any sense a synonpuical one, involving the expression of pereonal views, but a hand-book for the student, in which is collected every reference to any species of Orthoptera stated to have been found on the conti- nent of North America or in the West Indies — a ground- work upon which he may erect a superstructure of his own. It would be difficult to extend its scope and retain uniformity of design without making it a complete synonyraical list, scarcely differing from an index to an elaborate monograjih, and necessi- tating nearly all the labor which that would require.
