30 July 2020 Opinion 2456 (Case 3669) – Family-group names based on Ortalis Merrem, 178 (Aves, Cracidae): usage conserved by suppression of the family-group names based on Ortalis Fallén, 1810 (Insecta, Diptera)
Abstract

Under the plenary power, the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has conserved the family-group name OrtalidiniDonegan, 2012 (Aves, Cracidae) with this spelling and authorship by suppressing all family-group names based on OrtalisFallén, 1810 (Insecta, Diptera). As a result, OrtalidainiDonegan, 2012 is an incorrect original spelling, and OrtalisiniDavid, 2014 is an unjustified emendation of OrtalidiniDonegan, 2012.
