Nomenclature OPINION 2051 (Case 3179)
Halacarus Gosse, 1855, H. ctenopus Gosse, 1855 and Thalassarachna Packard, 1871 (Arachnida, Acari): usage of the names conserved by the designation of a neotype for H. ctenopus
Abstract. The Commission has designated a neotype for the marine mite Halacarus ctenopus Gosse, 1855 in the taxonomic sense of Lohmann (1893) in order to conserve usage of the names Halacarus, H. ctenopus and Thalassarachna. The interpretation of the genus Halacarus and of H. ctenopus has been based on Lohmann (1893). The taxon described by Gosse is now placed in Thalassarachna Packard, 1871 under the name T. basteri (Johnston, 1836). [details]
