Tropidonotus striolatus

Tropidonotus striolatus
Theobald, 1868: 55
.—A replacement name for
Tropidonotus tytleri
Blyth, 1863
.
Status. A replacement name for
Tropidonotus tytleri
Blyth, 1863
. Synonymized with
Tropidonotus quincunciatus
by
Theobald (1876: 175)
.
Comments. Because this taxon is a replacement name for
Tropidonotus tytleri
Blyth, 1863
, it has the same name bearing
type
as that species (
Fig. 12–13
). In contrast to the statement made by
Smith (1943: 293)
, the
type
of
T. tytleri
and
T. striolatus
is not lost; see above. Although
Theobald (1868: 55)
credited this species to Blyth, it is unclear to us why Theobald created a replacement name, basing his description on the same specimen as Blyth.
