that is auct. :http://en.wikiped...i/Auctorum Does that mean: it is valid species name, but something named x auct. is realy y badly named as x, and that (missaplying) is done by many authors ? Hope that my statement is not even more complicated than that on wiki (-: Edited by BubikolRamios on 12-07-2013 20:48 highly searchable nature photo galery --> http://agrozoo.ne....jsp?l2=en |

In zoology either it is a (commonly used?) misinterepretation or misidentification of a species name: Musca complexa Linnaeus, 1758 sensu auct. Musca complexa Linnaeus, 1758 misident. sensu auct. Misidentification basically means that there is a type (or other material) that can pinpoint the exact identity of the species. If such material does not exist it truely becomes a matter of interpretation of the description. In that case there can be opposing opinions and than you may have two 'species': Musca complexa Linnaeus, 1758 sensu Fallén, 1810 Musca complexa Linnaeus, 1758 sensu auct. non Fallén, 1810 Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |
