Name

Paleobuprestis Walker, 1938

Type ichnospecies: Paleobuprestis maxima Walker, 1938, by subsequent designation by Häntzschel, 1962.

Synonyms

• Archeobuprestis Bellamy, 2006 [Note: proposed as a new name; Bellamy considered Paleobuprestis Walker, 1938 to be an unavailable name because it was described after 1930 without a type species designation; however, according to ICZN Article 13.3.3, "A name published for an ichnotaxon at the genus-group level before 2000 need not be accompanied by a type species fixation", which means that Paleobuprestis Walker, 1938 is in fact available from its original publication]
  • Type ichnospecies: Paleobuprestis maxima Walker, 1938, by original designation.
