Thunberg in his 1822 and 1824 papers,
published 308 new names. In the first paper (1822), he listed 596
Ichneumon names and gave a short description for each. In the second
paper (1824) he gave the status of each name, either that it was
just a redescription of an already available name or that it was a
new name, with a more detailed description and the type location of
each new name. Thus 1824 paper should be considered as the
completion of a nomenclatural act started in 1822, and therefore the
year of publications of the new names from these two papers should
be considered as 1824 (Horstmann, 1999). |
