As in volume 15 of the Bulletin, concerned with proposals for the XV Congress, 1958, articles have been arranged by Case and Document Numbers so that all comments relative to the same problem may be easily identifiable. They are printed here with a view to bringing them to the notice of all zoologists who are invited to put forward their views. w. E. CHINA Acting Secretary International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature CASE No . 1 REQUEST FOR A CLARIFICATION OF ARTICLE 40 (Z.N.(S.) 1508) (By J. Chester Bradley (President, International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature) Article 40 deals with the conservation of a family-group name based on a type-genus which, after 1960, is discovered to be a junior synonym. It gives however no directive in the case of a family-group name based on a type-genus which was discovered to be a junior synonym before 1960. In this case it has been general practice to change the family-group name to one based on the valid name of the type-genus, so that there are sometimes two or more family- group names competing in present use for the same taxon. It is suggested that the present Article 40 should become Article 40a and that a new paragraph (b) be added as follows : If two family-group names based on type-genera that are objective synonyms or are regarded as subjective synonyms are competing in use for the same taxon, the family-group name based on the senior synonym shall prevail, regardless of whether it itself has priority.

Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries 338 Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature CASE No. 2 THE INTERNATIONAL CODE PROVISIONS ON FAMILY-GROUP NAMES AND THEIR EFFECTS ON TRILOBITE TAXONOMY (Z.N.(S.) 1538) By J. T. Temple (Birhbeck College, London) The Regies internationales de la Nomenclature zoologique (1905) as drawn up by the Berlin Congress of 1901 and emended by several later Congresses (notably Budapest 1927) did not legislate for family-group names beyond prescribing the endings of family and subfamily names and the dependence of these names on that of the type-genus (Arts. 4 & 5). In particular, the Law of Priority (Art. 25) which determined the availability as well as the priority of names applied only to generic and specific names. The Paris Congress of 1948 approved a recommendation that the wording of Arts. 4 & 5 should be expanded to clarify the ideas of selection and designation of a type-genus for a family, but did not legislate further, and referred the whole problem of family-group names to the Secretary of the Commission for him to make a thorough study (1950, Bull. zool. Nomencl. 4 : 138). The results of this study were presented to the XIV Congress in Copenhagen, 1953, which recommended the insertion of several provisions relating to family- group names into the Rbgles. The most important of these for the present purpose is para. 52 (Copenhagen Decisions 1953 : 35) :— " The Colloquium recommends that a provision should be inserted in the Regies prescribing that a name given to a taxon of the Family-Group is to be treated as having been published with an indication through the incorporation into it of a basic portion of the name of its type genus. The Colloquium proposes, however, that a Recommandation should be inserted urging authors when publishing a name for a new taxon belonging to a category in the Family-Group to give a diagnosis of the characters relied upon for distinguishing that taxon from allied taxa previously named." There are two points of interest in this paragraph. Firstly, the provision concerning publication of a family-group name with an indication referred presumably to Art. 25(a) of the Regies where an indication was (together with the application of binomial nomenclature) a sufficient criterion for the avail¬ ability of names published before 1 January 1931 ; but Art. 25 refers only to generic and specific names, and although the Copenhagen Congress discussed this Article (Copenhagen Decisions 1953 : 60-66) it did not expand its province to cover family-group names. The provision in the first part of para. 52 could not, therefore, be put into effect. Secondly, the latter part of the paragraph urging authors to publish a diagnosis of a new family-group taxon was not a mandatory provision, but a Recommandation, and even with this limited force it could only operate from the date of publication of the Copenhagen Decisions (31 December 1953). Ball. zool. Nomencl., Vol. 19, Part 6. December 1962. Original from and digitized by National University of Singapore Libraries Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature 339 In practice, therefore, after the publication of the Copenhagen Decisions there was still no legislation on the criteria of availability of family-group names except for the prescribed endings and the necessity of incorporating the stem of the name of the type-genus ; and this state of affairs continued until the recent (6 November 1961) publication of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature adopted by the XV Congress in London, 1958. The most important change in the new Code as it affects families is the widening of the old Law of Priority to cover all names, including family-group names. The provisions are now embodied in Arts. 12, 13 & 16 as follows :— "Article 12. Names published before 1931.—In addition to satisfying the provisions of Article 11, a name published before 1931 must have been accompanied by a description, definition, or indication." "Article 16(a).—The word " indication " as used in this Chapter applies only to the following : (iv) the formation of a new family-group name from the stem of the name of a genus, which thus becomes the type-genus ; "Article 13.

This species was previously known only from deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the South-West Pacific but it was now found at a deep-sea cold seep site off southwestern Taiwan. The identity of the Taiwanese material is confirmed by comparison of sequences from the barcoding gene COI. Munidopsis lauensis can be easily separated from other congeners in Taiwanese waters by the eyes bearing a strong mesiodorsal spine and a small mesioventral spine, smooth carapace, fingers of the cheliped distally spooned and fixed finger without a denticulate carina on the distolateral margin.

Le rostre est tridenté. L'abdomen est inerme, cilié, et possède un sillon transverse. La cornée n'est pas pigmentée. Le fouet antennaire est grêle et nettement plus long que la carapace. Les chélipèdes sont au-moins aussi longs que le corps étendu. Les mâles sont un peu plus petits que les femelles. La longueur post-orbitale de la carapace atteint 10,9 mm pour les mâles, et 13,0 mm pour les femelles (ovigères). La couleur serait blanc-rougeâtre à orange vif avec du pigment blanc au niveau de la ligne médiodorsale, des bords latéraux de la carapace et des dactyles des pattes. Le développement larvaire est court avec trois stades zoés. L'espèce peut être parasitée par le rhizocéphale Cyphosaccus norvegicus. Cette espèce bathyale est trouvée entre (-50) - 300 et -1200 m (-2165), parfois sur sable fin mais le plus souvent en association avec des coraux d'eaux froides comme les Lophelia ou des gorgones comme les Paramuricea ou Acanthogorgia.

Ahyong Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2010, Australia, and School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of New South Wales, Kensington, NSW 2052, Australia Abstract. The deep-sea squat lobster, Munidopsis serricornis (Lovén, 1852), originally described from the north-eastern Atlantic, has long been considered near cosmopolitan with numerous reports also from the western Pacific and northern Indian Ocean. These Indo-West Pacific records are reviewed along with new material from seamounts throughout the region. Munidopsis serricornis sensu stricto is restricted to the Atlantic Ocean. Six new species are described from the Indo-West Pacific:M.

ZooKeys 965: 17–36. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.965.55213 Abstract Squat lobster specimens belonging to the family Munididae were recently collected along the southwest- ern coast of the mainland of India and in the Andaman Islands. The specimens belong to two known species, Agononida prolixa (Alcock, 1894) and Munida compacta Macpherson, 1997, and a new species, Paramunida bineeshi sp. nov. We here redescribe A. prolixa and describe and figure the new species. Munida compacta is newly recorded from India, and we figure the live coloration.

  • Mitochondrial Phylogeny of the Deep-Sea Squat Lobsters, Munidopsidae (Galatheoidea)

De Grave Abstract The Munidopsidae, one of three squat lobster families in the Galatheoidea, contains the deepest dwelling squat lobsters, with some occurring at abyssal depths. Munidopsids were formerly divided into two subfamilies: Shinkaiinae, for the unusual hydrothermal vent genus Shinkaia; and Munidopsinae for remaining taxa. Four munidopsid genera are currently recognised (Shinkaia, Leiogalathea, Galacantha and Munidopsis) but the largest genus, Munidopsis, is highly diverse morphologically, with multiple genera or subgenera currently in its synonymy. Phylogenetic studies of galatheoids focussed on high level relationships indicate that Leiogalathea is sister to other munidopsids, but the position of Shinkaia with respect to Munidopsis and Galacantha is unclear, as is the reciprocal monophyly of the latter two genera. Phylogenetic analyses of the Munidopsidae based on mitochondrial 16S and COI sequences, sampling all current genera (including the majority of the formerly recognised subgenera), indicate that the generic and former subfamily classifications do not reflect the phylogeny. Shinkaia and Galacantha clades are nested within Munidopsis rendering the genus paraphyletic and the bi-subfamily classification phylogenetically invalid.
