status

 

78. Neopales Coquillett, 1910c: 575 .

TYPE SPECIES: Pales florea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [= Tachina pavida Meigen, 1824 ], automatic (by subsequent designation of the same species for Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ( Coquillett, 1910c: 582) ].

CURRENT STATUS: Unnecessary new replacement name for Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ; junior synonym of Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [ teste Herting & Dely-Draskovits (1993: 233) ].

FAMILY: TACHINIDAE .

REMARKS: At the time of Coquillett’s (1910c) paper, no type species had been designated for Pales Robineau- Desvoidy, 1830. As a new name for Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 , the type species designated for Neopales Coquillett, 1910c would automatically be the type species for Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 and vice versa. Coquillett (1910c: 575) designated Musca processioneae Ratzeburg, 1840 (as “ Tachina processioneae ”) as the type species for Neopales ; whereas he (1910c: 582) designated Pales strenua Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 as the type species for Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 . Musca processioneae Ratzeburg, 1840 was not one of the originally included species in Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 , thus the only valid type species designation is Pales florea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 by Coquillett (1910c: 582). At the time Coquillett treated Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 in his type-species catalog, the name was preoccupied by Pales Meigen, 1800 . However, by action of the I.C.Z.N. (1963b: 339) [Opinion 678], the 1800 work was suppressed, thus all names therein are unavailable. Thus, Pales Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 is no longer preoccupied by Pales Meigen, 1800 .
