30 August 2021 Opinion 2480 (Case 3774) – Diphyini Simon, 1894 (Arachnida, Araneae, Tetragnathidae): spelling emended to Diphyaini to remove homonymy with Diphyidae Quoy & Gaimard, 1827 (Hydrozoa, Siphonophorae)
Abstract

The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has used its plenary power to emend the spelling of the family-group name Diphyini (Araneae) to remove homonymy with Diphyidae (Hydrozoa). The stem of the spider generic name Diphya has been emended to Diphyato give Diphyaini, while the hydrozoan generic name (based on the generic name Diphyes Cuvier, 1816) remains unaltered.
