Name
Aethiopomyia Malloch, 1921 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Aethiopomyia Malloch, 1921: 426. Type species: Spilogaster gigas Stein, 1906 (as “Mydaea gigas, Stein”), by original designation.
- Paleotachina Townsend, 1921: 134. Type species: Paleotachina smithii Townsend, 1921 (= Spilogaster gigas Stein, 1906, syn. n.), by monotypy. Syn. n.
- Palaeotachina . Incorrect subsequent spelling of Paleotachina Townsend, 1921 (Evenhuis 1994[1]: 467, Lehmann 2003[2]: 116, O’Hara 2013a[3]: 11, 12).
Remarks
The genus-group names Aethiopomyia and Paleotachina were both made available in 1921. The paper by Malloch (1921)[4] was published on May 1 (Evenhuis 2003[5]) and the paper by Townsend on October 3 (Evenhuis 1994[1]), thus giving date priority to Aethiopomyia.
