Treatment

Odocoileus Rafinesque, 1832 View in CoL . Atlantic Journal and Friend of Knowledge, 1:109.

TYPE SPECIES: Odocoileus spelaeus Rafinesque, 1832 (= Dama virginianus Zimmermann, 1780 View in CoL ).

SYNONYMS: Aplacerus, Cariacus, Dorcelaphus, Eucervus, Gymnotis, Macrotis, Oplacerus, Otelaphus, Palaeodocoileus, Protomazama, Reduncina .

COMMENTS: Hall (1981:1087) employed Dama Zimmerman, 1780 , of which Dama virginiana (= Odocoileus virginianus ) is the type, for this genus, but Dama Frisch, 1775 , with Cervus dama (= Dama dama) as type has priority and thus preoccupies Dama Zimmerman, 1780 ( International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, 1960).
