TYPE
SPECIES
:
Nodicornis wiedemanni
Rondani, 1843
(as “

], by monotypy.
CURRENT STATUS: Junior synonym of
Sybistroma

[

Yang
et al

; as “
Nordicornis
”)].
FAMILY:
DOLICHOPODIDAE
.
REMARKS:
Rondani (1843d)
used the spelling “
wiedmani
”, while subsequent workers have been using the spelling “
wiedemanni
”. The latter is here considered to be in prevailing usage as demonstrated by the recent usage in the following:
Negrobov (1991: 81)
,
Brooks (2005: 113)
, and
Yang
et al
. (2006: 202)
. There is no indication in the original work itself for whom the species is being named, thus Article 32.5.1 cannot be invoked to make a mandatory change in the original orthography, and “
wiedemanni
” has to our knowledge never been proposed as an emendation under any of the criteria in Article 33.2.
