Podargus cornutus Temminck, 1822 (currently Batrachostomuscornutus; Aves, podargidae): specific name conserved by designation of a neotype
Abstract

The Commission has conserved the accustomed usage of the name cornutus Temminck, 1822 for the Sumatran population of the southeast Asian species currently named Batrachostomus javensis (Horsfield, 1821) (Aves, podargidae) by ruling that the name Podargus cornutus was proposed by Temminck (1822) for a new taxon, rather than as a replacement name for Podargus javensis Horsfield, 1821. The Commission has designated a neotype for Podargus cornutus Temminck, 1822.
