Corythalia dimidiata
Simon, 1901
Corythalia dimidiata
Simon 1901: 654
(mention of the name without any description or illustration);
Petrunkevitch 1911: 615
;
Bonnet 1956: 1236
(recognition and establishment under status
nomen nudum
);
Platnick (2001)
(
nomen nudum
).
Remarks.
As distribution area of this “species”
Simon (1901)
listed
Colombia
. In
Colombia
, however, far more than one
Corythalia
species occur. As neither any
types
were deposited nor any description of this “species” exists, the invalid status as a
nomen nudum
is justified. Once again, Simon may have planned to describe a species with this name (including designation and deposition of a
type
), but never did so.
