Leiopython albertisii barkeri Hoser, 2000 [nomen nudum (APP6)]

Synonyms:

Leiopython albertisi barkerorum Hoser, 2009 (APP4, APP8, see introduction)

Remarks:

Hoser (2000) differentiated this subspecies only by remote distribution (APP2). Other characters mentioned by Hoser (2000) were said to overlap with the nominate form. Wüster et al. (2001) and Schleip (2008) therefore considered the name a nomen nudum. Furthermore, since the name honours two persons, it should have been suffixed with -orum. In 2009 Hoser re-described this taxon with the name emended to albertisi barkerorum. However, the name is considered not published under the Code (APP8).
