Abstract

The purpose of this application, under Article 23.9.5 of the Code, is to conserve the use of the well known alpine leaf beetle name Oreina elongata (Suffrian, 1851), originally described as Chrysomela elongata, and thus a junior primary homonym of Chrysomela elongata Linnaeus, 1758, currently known as Tillus elongatus (Linnaeus, 1758).
