Name

edit
  • Aglae Lepeletier & Serville, 1825

NOTE: The original 1825 publication describing the species spelled the epithet as "cœrulea", which nearly all subsequent authors misspelled as caerulea rather than coerulea, but under Article 33.3.1 of the ICZN, the caerulea spelling must be maintained. ("33.3.1. when an incorrect subsequent spelling is in prevailing usage and is attributed to the publication of the original spelling, the subsequent spelling and attribution are to be preserved and the spelling is deemed to be a correct original spelling.")
