Nomenclature This combination is often cited as authored by Milne Edwards (1835, 1857), but the name is originally erected in Gmelin in Linnaeus (1791). Its identity is unclear, and Milne Edwards' combination is likely to be different. If so, then the Milne Edwatds material needs to be reassigned or - if not yet known - needs to be renamed. [details]
