Note. RONDANI (1867: 105) established the name Gimnomera but in the index of the same paper (p. 135), he listed the genus as Gymnomera . The first revising author ( BECKER 1894: 182) and following authors (e.g., BECKER 1905, WAHLGREN 1917) spelled the genus as Gimnomera . The variant Gymnomera was used again later by HENDEL (1930a). The correct original spelling must be based on the decision of the first revising author if the original description includes multiple spellings ( ICZN 1999: Article 32.2.1), even if the chosen spelling is grammatically incorrect. Gymnomera must be therefore considered as incorrect original spelling.
