Removal of homonymy between Leucandra...
Nomenclature Here we cite Van Soest et al.'s (2020: 24) explanation for the proposed nomen novum. Removal of homonymy between Leucandra echinata Schuffner, 1877 and Leucandra echinata (Carter, 1886). 1. Leucandra echinata Schuffner, 1877: 411 (type locality Mauritius, Indian Ocean). Leucandra echinata Schuffner, 1877 is the senior secondary homonym of Leucandra echinata (Carter, 1886) (as Leuconia) from southern Australia. If the two are not synonymous (as Dendy 1913: 23 assumed), and if they both belong in Leucandra, Carter’s species will have to be renamed (ICZN Art. 57.3). Although Van Soest & De Voogd (2018: 150), in their summary of the status of this species, recommended leaving the status quo for its nomenclature, biogeographically it is highly unlikely that the western Indian Ocean and southern Tasman Sea species are conspecific, and thus the homonymy requires removal. 2. Leuconia echinata Carter, 1886: 129 (type locality Bass Strait, Australia). Leuconia echinata Carter, 1886 was relegated as a synonym of Leucandra echinata Schuffner, 1877 by Dendy (1913), although with question as to their true conspecificity. That synonymy was rejected by Burton (1963: 248), and the two are considered different species. If indeed the Australian species belongs to Leucandra it is a junior secondary homonym of Schuffner’s (1877) species (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 59.1), and required a new name. 3. Summary: Leucandra echinata Schuffner, 1877 is the senior secondary homonym of Leucandra echinata (Carter, 1886) (ICZN Art. 57.3). Leucandra echinata (Carter, 1886) is the junior secondary homonym of Leucandra echinata Schuffner, 1877 and lacking synonyms required a new name (ICZN Art. 59.1 & 60.3), for which Leucandra henrycarteri nom. nov. was proposed, named after Henry John Carter.
