scientific name

Chrysophanus f. multipunctata Warnecke, 1942
status

 

72. Chrysophanus f. multipunctata Warnecke, 1942

Original combination.

" Chrysophanus virgaureae L., ?, n.f. multipunctata." Warnecke, 1942 Dt. Ent. Z. Iris 56: 103.

Current combination.

Lycaena virgaureae f. multipunctata (Warnecke, 1942).

Current status.

Infrasubspecific and hence unavailable.

Original material.

Labelled as “Type” 1? (ZMH 827592) (Fig. 72 View Plate 11 ). "n.f. multipunctata / Warn. Type / Iris 1942, 103" // " Chrysoph. virgaureae / multipunctata / Type Warn. / L.30" // “Holstein” // "Katalog Nr. / L. 2196" // " Sig. G. Warnecke / Eing. Nr. 5, 1949" // "ZMH 827592" .

Original locality.

Germany: Holstein.

Remarks.

Warnecke (1942) proposed this name as a form of C. virgaureae (Linnaeus, 1758). According to article 45.6.1 ( ICZN 1999), it is infrasubspecific if the content of the work unambiguously reveals that the name was proposed for an infrasubspecific entity, and is hence unavailable. The title and the text of Warnecke (1942) paper unambiguously reveals that this form was described as an aberration and not as a subspecies. It was only found in a single male.
