Remark by Paclt, 1947, cited from Ellis, W.N. & Bellinger, P.F. 1973:57: Troglopedetes Joseph, 1872 is a nomen nudum. |
Remark by Ellis, W.N. & Bellinger, P.F. 1973:57: The opinion of Paclt, 1947, that Troglopedetes Joseph is a nomen nudum cannot be upheld, however meagre the description may be. |
Remark by Janssens, F. 2020.12.21: The name "Troglopedetes kae" is confusing and misleading, especially so when the specific name is wrongly given an upper case initial character. In order to avoid the appearance that the specific name is a citation of the authorship of the generic name, the specific name should not be formed as a noun in apposition (ICZN Recommendation 31A). To avoid confusion with an author bearing the name "Kae", the new specific name which is based on a geographical name (a toponym) should preferably be formed with the latin -ensis suffix. Therefore "Troglopedetes kaeensis" would have been the recommended name. |
Remark by Paclt, 1947, cited from Ellis, W.N. & Bellinger, P.F. 1973:57: Troglopedetes Absolon, 1907 might be identical with Troglopedetes Joseph, 1872. |
Remark by Ellis, W.N. & Bellinger, P.F. 1973:57: Troglopedetes Absolon, 1907 is a junior homonym of Troglopedetes Joseph, 1872. |
