Synonymy: |
nr. laudabilis (Guenée, 1852) (Hecatera)scribillata (Draudt, 1924) (Polia) UNAVAIL. Type locality: "Cuernavaca", Mexico. Note: Originally described as an aberration of laudabilis (Guenée, 1852), this name is treated as unavailable in accordance with ICZN rules by Schmidt (in Pohl & Nanz (eds.) 2023). |
Taxonomic Notes: |
Lacinipolia nr. laudabilis is a valid, undescribed species first reported in the US from Texas in the 2004 LepSoc Season Summary as scribillata Draudt, a name treated as unavailable by Schmidt (in Pohl & Nanz (eds.) 2023). For the purposes of listing this species without proliferating an unavailable name, MPG replaces scribillata with nr. laudabilis but retains scribillata as a synonym on advice from Chris Schmidt (pers. comm., 2024). |
