Synonyms

Note:: "Nica Hübner was rejected by Kirby in 1871 as a junior homonym of Nika Risso, 1816 (Hist. nat. Crust : 84) and renamed Pseudonica. However, under the Copenhagen decision referred to above, now embodied in the Code in Article 56 (a) the words Nica and Nika are not homonyms of one another. Accordingly, the name Nica Hübner is an available name and Pseudonica Kirby, 1871, is invalid as a junior objective synonym of that name." (ZooBank: 5A94A3A8-2CF6-48BD-9C7F-DB3069EF97AB)
