REMARKS:
Rondani (1876d: 190)
described both sexes of
Psila bertolinii
without specifying either the
number
or the length of the specimens: “
raro
lectus uterque sexus a Cl. De Bertolini
[both sexes rarely collected by Mr. De Bertolini]”.
Soós (1982b: 156)
designated a
lectotype
(
♂
) and
paralectotype
(
♀
). Rondani spelled this nominal species as “
bertolinii
” in his key (p. 189) and as “
bertolini
” in his description (p. 190) and index (p. 198).
Becker (1905: 159)
Hennig (1941: 16)
and
Soós (1982b: 156)
listed this nominal species as “
bertolini
”,
Soós (1984a: 29)
and
Nartshuk
et al.
(1995: 4)
listed it as “
bertolinii
”
.
O’Hara
et al
. (2011: 207)
listed both names and, acting as First Revisers (according to I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 24.2.3), they determined “
bertolinii
”
as the correct original spelling and “
bertolini”
as the incorrect original spelling
