REMARKS: To make the genus-group name orthography conform in a more euphonious manner with his French vernacular for the genus (“Arabette”), Robineau-Desvoidy (1863b: 88) changed the spelling of his 1830 Araba to Arabella (an unjustified emendation for Araba ) and designated a type species for Arabella (see also No. 32, Arabella below).
EMENDATIONS: Arabella Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863b: 88 (unjustified).
