scientific name

Cubaris lewisae
status

nom. nov.

Cubaris lewisae View in CoL nom. nov.

Cubaris granulatus Lewis, 1998b View in CoL (not C. granulatus Collinge, 1915b View in CoL ).

Remarks. Lewis (1998b) described a new species of Cubaris from Lord Howe Island that she named C. granulatus . This name has already been used by Collinge (1915b) for a species from India. These species are clearly different, and the species from Lord Howe Island must be given another name. We propose the name Cubaris lewisae nom. nov. to replace C. granulatus Lewis, 1998b .
