Taxonomy
The genus Taringa was described by Ernst Gustav Gotthelf Marcus in 1955[1] with the type species Taringa telopia.[10]
Valdés & Gosliner (2001)[10] synonymized the genera Aporodoris Ihering, 1886 and Taringa Er. Marcus, 1955. They used Taringa as the valid name (declaring it to be a nomen protectum) because they (erroneously) considered the senior synonym Aporodoris not to have been used as a valid name since 1886.
Valdés & Gosliner (2001)[10] carried out an erroneous reversal precedence. The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature should publish a decision on which name should be used in such cases, according to Article 23.10 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. In the meantime, the name in prevailing usage must be used (according to Article 23.10).
Dayrat (2010)[11] agreed with the synonymization of the genera Aporodoris and Taringa.[11] However, he considered the generic name Aporodoris and the specific name Aporodoris millegrana to be valid[11] using strict application of the Principle of Priority.
List of works with the name Aporodoris used as valid:
- Ihering 1886[12]
- Eliot 1910 - he provisionally used the genus Aporodoris[13]
- Burn 1973[14]
- Dayrat 2010[11]
Genus Taringa was used as valid in at least 30 works.[10] List of works with the name Taringa used as valid:
