Authorship of Scyllaeidae?
June 21, 2003
From: Gert Lindner
Please, which is the right authorship for the family Scyllaeidae?
I find:
Scyllaeidae LINNAEUS 1758 (Sabelli, Gianuzzi-Savelli & Bedulli)
Scyllaeidae Rafinesque 1815 (Abbott)
Scyllaeidae ALDER & HANCOCK 1855 (Internet)
Scyllaeidae ALDER & HANCOCK ?1864, Bergh 1892
Thank you,
Gert

Lindner, G., 2003 (Jun 21) Authorship of Scyllaeidae?. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/10278Dear Gert,
It's sometimes not easy to find this information. This earliest use I can find is
Bergh, L. S. R. 1890. Die cladohepatischen Nudibranchien. Zoologische Jahrbucher, Abtheilung fur Systematik Geographie und Biologie der Thiere, 5: 1-75.
Alder & Hancock placed Scyllaea in the family Tritoniidae. If anyone has an earlier use - which they can confirm by actually looking at the publication I would be interested.
Best wishes
Bill Rudman
