Hadrurus concolor Sissom & Fet 2000: 416 . Unjustified emendation (junior objective synonym). Sissom & Fet (2000) emended the species name concolorous to concolor , because the original spelling is not a proper Latin word, but an English adjective with the same meaning. It is not mandatory, however, that authors use only Latin words, as any language is allowed (Art. 11.3) provided that the name is constructed using the Latin alphabet (Art. 11.2). Therefore, this emendation is unjustified, and the original name is to be restored.
