Amphinome [ Amphinome ] Meigen, 1800: 15 . CURRENT STATUS: Unavailable name; work suppressed for the purposes of zoological nomenclature by action of I.C.Z.N. (1963: 339 [Opinion 678]); treated under Limonia Meigen, 1803 [ teste Sabrosky (1999: 44) ]. [ Amphinome ] Bezzi, 1907a: 56 . CURRENT STATUS: Unavailable name; criteria to make the name available not fulfilled in this work. REMARKS: Bezzi (1907a) included this name only in a list of Meigen 1800 names without stating their availability. Amphinome Meigen in Hendel, 1908: 47 . ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Tipula tripunctata Fabricius, 1781 , Tipula sexpunctata Fabricius, 1781 [as “ 6- punctata ”]; Tipula quadrimaculata Linnaeus, 1760 [as “ 4- maculata ... Fabr.”]; Tipula replicata Linnaeus, 1758 [as “ replicata ... Fabr.”]; Tipula rivosa Linnaeus, 1758 [as “ rivosa ... Fabr.”). TYPE SPECIES: Tipula tripunctata Fabricius, 1781 [preoccupied by Tipula tripunctata Müller, 1764 ; = Tipula phragmitidis Schrank, 1781 ], by subsequent designation ( Coquillett 1910a: 505 ). CURRENT STATUS: Preoccupied by Amphinome Bruguière, 1792 ; junior synonym of Limonia Meigen, 1803 . New Synonymy . FAMILY: LIMONIIDAE . REMARKS: Amphinome was originally proposed by Meigen without included species and later made unavailable by the suppression of the entire work for the purposes of zoological nomenclature by action of the I.C.Z.N. (1963: 339 [Opinion 678]). Hendel (1908: 47) was the first after Meigen (1800) to give characters to differentiate the taxon (reproducing Meigen’s characters) and to treat Amphinome as valid, which makes the name available from that work with Meigen as author. Hendel (1908) included five available species-group names, but did not select a type species from among them. Coquillett (1910a: 505) was the first to designate Tipula tripunctata Fabricius, 1781 , as type species of Amphinome from these five originally included species. Tipula tripunctata Fabricius, 1781 is currently treated in Limonia Meigen, 1803 [ teste Sabrosky 1999: 4 )], which makes Amphinome Meigen in Hendel, 1908 a junior synonym of Limonia Meigen, 1803 , n. syn .
