Remarks.
The name
Cyclosoma
first appeared on plate 48 of
Iconographie du règne animal
and was atributted to Chevrolat while the illustrated species
Cassida
(
Cyclosoma
)
longicornis
was attributed to Fabricius (GUÉRIN- MÉNEVILLE 1833). Later on, in the text part GUÉRIN- MÉNEVILLE (1844) stated that the name
longicornis
was engraved by mistake and was originally given by Dejean and that the correct name is
Cassida palliata
Fabricius, 1787
. He added that the name
Cyclosoma
was proposed by Chevrolat for the latter and several other species and subsequently changed to
Discomorpha
Chevrolat, 1836
which is identical to
Oxynodera
Hope, 1840
.
The name
Cyclosoma
was omitted by subsequent authors until
BARBER & BRIDWELL (1940)
who attributed it to Guérin-Méneville, considered it was published in 1835 and synonymized
Prenea
Spaeth, 1913
with it as both had the same
type
species. Since GUÉRIN- MÉNEVILLE (1833, 1844) clearly stated that the author of the name is Chevrolat and
COWAN (1971)
indicated that the plate 48 was published already in
1833 I
hereby change the authorship of
Cyclosoma
to Chevrolat, 1833 (
ICZN 1999
: Art. 50.1.1).
Cyclosoma
has been considered a feminine (e.g.
VIANA 1964a
,
BOROWIEC 1999a
). It is a combination of two Greek words, κύκλος (cyclos, = circle) and σῶμα (sóma, = body) and is neuter. Hence gender agreement of endings of all names which are adjectives (denoded in following list by an asterisk) in species currently included in the genus (see
BOROWIEC 1999a
) is changed to neuter (
ICZN 1999
: Art. 31.2):
