Viereck (1914) follows Curtis who cited laetatorius F. as 

 the Type of Anomalon Jrn. (1807) in 1838. This species 

 was included by Jurine in his section 1, while cruentatus 

 Pzr. and alvearius F. (= ajphidum Pzr.), the types of 

 Anomalon Pzr., 1804, were included by Jurine in his 

 section 2. Curtis had overlooked the earlier use of Ano- 

 malon by Panzer, in Faun. Ins. Germ. — either cruentatus 

 Pzr., or alvearius F. must be taken as Type of Anomalon 

 Pzr. (= Anomalon Jrn., sect. 2) — cruentatus Pzr. was the 

 first species associated with the generic name Anomalon, 

 which on the publication of Panzer's 94* 13 was a " mono- 

 basic " genus.

Fabricius {teste Jurine Nouv. Meth. 117) adopted the 

 genus and generic name Bracon from Jurine himself. The 

 same is the case wath several other genera introduced in the 

 Systema Piezatorum. This being so it seems clear that 

 Fabricius either had the Erlangen Article before him, or
