Gossea Spence Bate & Westwood, 1862 (Amphipoda) and Gossea Agassiz, 1862 (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa): reversal of presumed precedence and review of the complicated nomenclatural history
- Abstract:
-
Gossea Agassiz, 1862 (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) and Gossea Spence Bate & Westwood, 1862 (Crustacea: Amphipoda) are homonyms and Agassiz’s genus has long been considered the senior name. Discovery of copyright information for Agassiz’s book shows that the presumed order of precedence is incorrect and that Spence Bate & Westwood’s genus name is the senior homonym. A detailed history of both genera is given with the recognition that Apherusa Walker, 1891 is an unnecessary replacement name for Gossea Spence Bate & Westwood, 1862 and that Octobulbacea Zamponi, 1983, as the only available junior synonym, is the name that should be used for Gossea Agassiz, 1862.
Gossea Agassiz, 1862 (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) und Gossea Spence Bate & Westwood, 1862 (Crustacea: Amphipoda) sind Homonyme und die Gattung von Agassiz gilt seit langem als der älteste Name. Die Entdeckung von Urheberrechtsinformationen für das Buch von Agassiz zeigt jedoch, dass die vermutete Rangfolge nicht korrekt ist, und dass der Gattungsname von Spence Bate & Westwood das älteste Homonym ist. Eine detaillierte Geschichte beider Gattungen wird dargestellt, mit der Erkennung dass Apherusa Walker, 1891 ein unnötiger Ersatzname für Gossea Spence Bate & Westwood, 1862 ist, und dass Octobulbacea Zamponi, 1983 als einziges verfügbares jüngeres Synonym für Gossea Agassiz, 1862 verwendet werden sollte.
