Fidia Brancuccii
''Fidia'' (formerly known as ''Lypesthes'') is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in East Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa. Taxonomic history In 1861, Victor Motschulsky described a new species of beetle from Japan with the name ''Fidia atra''. In 1863, Joseph Sugar Baly designated ''Fidia atra'' as the type species of a newly established genus with the name ''Lypesthes''. In a 2008 review of the New World genus ''Fidia'' Baly, 1863, it was determined that Motschulsky's species description made the name ''Fidia'' available first, meaning that ''Lypesthes'' Baly, 1863 is a junior synonym of ''Fidia'' Motschulsky, 1861 and that ''Fidia'' Baly, 1863 is a junior homonym. An application to suppress ''Fidia'' Motschulsky, 1861 (with the year incorrectly given as "1860") and conserve usage of ''Fidia'' Baly, 1863 and ''Lypesthes'' Baly, 1863 was submitted to the ICZN in 2006. This proposal was rejected by the commission in 2009, upholding the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Victor Motschulsky
Victor Ivanovich Motschulsky (sometimes Victor von Motschulsky, russian: link=no, Виктор Иванович Мочульский, 11 April 1810, in St. Petersburg – 5 June 1871, in Simferopol) was a Russian entomologist mainly interested in beetles. Motschulsky was an Imperial Army colonel who undertook extended trips abroad. He studied and described many new beetles from Siberia, Alaska, the United States, Europe, and Asia. While he tended to ignore previous work and his own work on classification was of poor quality, Motschulsky made a massive contribution to entomology, exploring hitherto unworked regions, often in very difficult terrain. He described many new genera and species, a high proportion of which remain valid. Travels Motschulsky's travels included: *1836 - France, Switzerland and the Alps, northern Italy and Austria *1839–1840 - Russian Caucasus, Astrakhan, Kazan and Siberia *1847 - Khirgizia *1850–1851 - Germany, Austria, Egypt, India, France, England, ...
