Taxonomy This species has been credited to Bolton by Hudson (1885)and subsequent authors. As Harring (1913:28)points out, however, it is more appropriately "credited to Hudson, as it is very doubtful whether the description in "Bolton's flyleaves" can be accepted as publication in the sense of the International Code". [details]
