GENERIC NAMES OF THE FAMILY STAPHYLINIDAE 71 



AUTALIA Leach, 1819, p. 177.

 Variant spellinffs : 



Antalia Laporte, 1840, p. 199. 

 AUTHOBIUM [Error for Anthobium]. 

 AUTHOPHAGUS [Error for Anthophagus]. 

 AUTUORIA Silvestri, 1946a, p. 309. 



Oenotype : Autuoria elegantulum Silvestri. 

 Fixed by : Silvestri, 1946a, p. 309, by monotypy. 



Discussion : Silvestri specifically cites the genotype as A. orthoccphali n. sp. 

 Since no such name is validated in the genus and only one species is 

 described, that one (elegantulnm) must be the genotype. 

 BABTOLINUS [Error lor Baptolinus]. 

 BACILLOPSIS Normand, 1920, p. 131. 



Oenotype: Bacillopsis africana (PeyerimhofC) (Cylindropsis). 

 Fixed by : Blackwelder, here, by sul>sequent designation. 

 BACULOPSIS Cameron, 1928b, p. 106. 



Genotype : Baculopsis jacobsoni Cameron. 

 Fixed by : Cameron, 1928b, p. 106, by monotypy. 

 BADURA Mulsaut and Key, lS73b, p. 159, without description. [Subgenus of 

 Iscluioiwda.^ 

 Oenotype: Badura nudicornis Mulsant and Rey. 

 Fixed by : Mulsant and Rey, 1873b, p. 159, by monotypy. 



Later citations: B. parvula (Mannerheim), by Fenyes, 1918, p. 21, not 

 originally included. B. macrocera (Thomson), by Scheerpeltz, 1929b, p. 

 244; 1934, p. 1627; not originally included. B. parvula (Mannerheim), by 

 Tottenham, 1949b, p. 394, not originally included. 

 Discussion: All these designations were made on the assumption that the 

 genus dates from 1874, where it contained several species. The citation 

 of macrocera could be accepted only thi-ough the subjective synonymy of 

 macrocera and nudicornis.
