Type species designations of Afrotropical Ablaberini and Sericini genera (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae) Author Ahrens, Dirk text Zootaxa 2007 1496 53 62 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.177047 fc8b54c3-a6ee-4ffb-80dd-1b8cd0ca50b4 1175-5326 177047 Oocamenta Péringuey, 1904 Oocamenta Péringuey, 1904 : 105 ; Machatschke 1959 : 743 . Type species: Camenta rufiventris Burmeister, 1855 (by monotypy). Remarks: Péringuey (1904) established the subgenus Pseudocamenta Péringuey (1904: 106) within the newly erected genus Oocamenta . Since Pseudocamenta included one of the two originally included species of Oocamenta ( Oocamenta [ Pseudocamenta ] transvaalia Péringuey, 1904 ), the type species for the nominotypical subgenus Oocamenta ( Oocamenta ) automatically becomes Camenta rufiventris Burmeister, 1855 because it is the only species originally placed in this subgenus. Consequently, it is also the type species of the genus Oocamenta (see ICZN 1999 , Art. 68.3.1).
