Etymology |
The new substitute name Dryinus turneri
was proposed in honour of the famous British entomologist Mr R. E.
Turner (Olmi et al. 2015).
|
Comments |
Dryinus ampuliciformis (Turner, 1928)
is preoccupied by Campylonyx ampuliciformis Westwood, 1835 (now a
junior synonym of Dryinus collaris Linnaeus, 1767), because
Campylonyx Westwood, 1835 is a junior synonym of Dryinus
Latreille, 1804 (synonymized by Olmi, 1984) (Olmi et al. 2015).
