Remarks.
SCHENKLING (1922)
, while transferring
Inca davisii
Waterhouse, 1877
to the genus
Golinca
,
misspelled the specific epithet as “
davisi
” lacking one “
i
”. This incorrect subsequent spelling has since been used by several authors (
BERGÉ 1884
,
BLACKWELDER 1944
,
KRAJCIK 1999
, MORÓN & VAZ- DE- MELLO 2007,
VALOIS & SILVA 2015
). Nevertheless, the correct spelling,
G. davisii
,
remained in use (
NAGAI 1994
,
RATCLIFFE et al. 2015
,
DE SOUZA SILVA et al. 2017
). We follow Art. 33.3 (
ICZN 1999
) which states that “any subsequent spelling of a name different from the correct original spelling, other than a mandatory change or an emendation, is an “incorrect subsequent spelling”; it is not an available name”. Since both the correct and incorrect subsequent spellings were recently in use, the incorrect subsequent spelling is not in prevailing usage and cannot be preserved under Art. 33.3. The name to be used is
Golinca davisii
(
Waterhouse, 1877
)
.
