Name
Lycocerus borneoensis Y. Yang & X. Yang nom. n. – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Podabrinus atricolor Pic 1938a[1]: 158.
- Pseudoabsidia atricolor : Wittmer 1969[2]: 128.
- Athemellus atricolor : Wittmer 1972a[3]: 126 [inc. sed.]; Delkeskamp 1977[4]: 47. [Secondary homonym, preoccupied by Lycocerus atricolor (Pic, 1922), originally described in Cantharis.]
Distribution
Borneo.
Etymology
The new name is derived from this species’ type locality “Borneo”.
Remarks
This species was located in Borneo and originally described in Athemellus Wittmer, 1972, which was synonymized with Lycocerus Gorham, 1889 by Okushima (2005)[5], so it should be placed in the latter genus for the time being. Because of this change, this species and Lycocerus atricolor (Pic, 1922) (originally in Athemus) become secondary homonyms and the junior is invalid (ICZN, 4th, article 57.3.1), so its name is replaced by Lycocerus borneoensis nom. n. here.
