Opinion 2510 (Case 3813) – Acalyptini Thomson, 1859 (Hexapoda, Coleoptera) and Acalyptini Blatchley, 1926 (Hexapoda, Heteroptera): homonymy removed by emendation of the latter name to Acalyptaini

The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has used its plenary power to remove the homonymy between the family-group names Acalyptini Thomson, 1859 (type genus Acalyptus Schöenherr, 1833) (Hexapoda, Coleoptera, Curculionidae) and Acalyptini Blatchley, 1926 (type genus Acalypta Westwood, 1840) (Hexapoda, Heteroptera, Tingidae). The stem of the genus-group name Acalypta Westwood, 1840 has been emended to Acalypta-, thereby making the family-group name Acalyptaini Blatchley, 1926 (Heteroptera), while the family-group name Acalyptini Thomson, 1859 (Coleoptera), based on Acalyptus Schöenherr, 1833, remains unchanged.

Abstract

The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has used its plenary power to remove the homonymy between the family-group names Acalyptini Thomson, 1859 (type genus Acalyptus Schöenherr, 1833) (Hexapoda, Coleoptera, Curculionidae) and Acalyptini Blatchley, 1926 (type genus Acalypta Westwood, 1840) (Hexapoda, Heteroptera, Tingidae). The stem of the genus-group name Acalypta Westwood, 1840 has been emended to Acalypta-, thereby making the family-group name Acalyptaini Blatchley, 1926 (Heteroptera), while the family-group name Acalyptini Thomson, 1859 (Coleoptera), based on Acalyptus Schöenherr, 1833, remains unchanged.
