Abstract

The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has conserved the spelling of the specific name of Lema decempunctataGebler, 1829. The name was originally published as “L. ropunctata”, but prevailing usage is of the spelling decempunctata as the former has been regarded by most subsequent taxonomists as a typesetting error.
