 TANNEA Blackwelder, uew subgenus. [Subgenus of A^acae««.] 

 Genotype : Tannea tenellus (Erichsou) (Lispinus). 

 Fixed by : Blackwelder, here, by original designation. 

 Synonyms: {See Nacaet(s). 



Notes : This name is proposed for tlie group of species listed by me in 1942 

 (page 89) under the name PseudoUspinodes s. str. The group is described 

 on page 81 of that work. The specimens therein represented by the name 

 madurensis Bernhauer were misidentified ; the true madurensis belongs 

 in Lispinus. 

 TANYCRACRUS [Error for Taiiycraerus]. 

 TANYCRAERUS Thomson, 1859, p. 43. [Subgenus of Oxytelus.] 

 Genotype: Tanycraerus luteipennis (Erichson) (Oxytelus). 

 Fixed by : Thomson, 1859, p. 43, by original designation and monotypy. 

 Later citations: T. luteipennis (Erichson), by Blackwelder, 1943, p. 91. 



T. laqueatus (Marsham), by Tottenham, 1949b, p. 363. 

 Synonymic homonyms : 



TANYcaAEEtJS ThomsoH, 1861, p. 129.

 TANYGNATHINUS Reitter, 1909, p. 105. [Synonym of Atanyffnathus.] 

 Genotype: Tanygnathinus terminalis (Erichson) (Tanygnathus). 

 Fixed by: Reitter, 1909, p. 105, through objective synonymy with Tany- 

 gnathus, of which terminalis had already been fixed as genotype. 

 Later citations: T. terminalis (Erichson), by Blackwelder, 1943, p. 471. 

 Synonyms : ( See Atanygnathus) . 



Notes : I can find no evidence that this name was not as early as Atanygna- 

 thus, but in the absence of evidence either way, the latter is retained as 

 being in current use. 

 TANYGNATHUS Erichsou, (1837, p. 282, nomen nudum), 1839a, p. 417. [Junior 

 homonym of Tanygnathus Wagler, 1832, Synonym of Atanygnathus.] 

 Genotype : Tanygnathus terminalis Erichson. 

 Fixed by : Erichson, 1839a, p. 417, by monotypy. 



Later citations : T. terminalis Erichson, by Duponchel, 1841a, p. 57 ; by 

 Lacordaire, 1854, p. 60; by Thomson, 1859, p. 26; by Blackwelder, 1943, 

 p. 471. 

 Discussion : This name was mentioned by Erichson in the first part of the 

 work (1837) with assignment in passing of one tribal structural character. 

 If this be considered validation, it was published at the earlier date with- 

 out included species, and terminalis is the genotype by being the first 

 species included by name (by Erichson, 1839a). 

 Synonyms: (See Atanygnathus). 

 Variant spellings: 



Tanygnatus Erichson, 1839b, p. 289.
