Abstract: In the present paper all the taxomical acts in the subfamily Rutelinae, tribe Anomalini, that proved necessary during the preparation of the "Catalogue of Palaearctic Coleoptera" are listed. For the purpose of nomenclatural stability lectotypes are designated for Anomala chamaeleon Fairmaire, 1887, Anomala flavofasciata Arrow, 1912, Mimela princeps Hope, 1841 and Phyllopertha horticola var. zea Reitter, 1903. Anomala micans Fairmaire, 1897 (preoccupied by Anomala micans Burmeister, 1844) is replaced by Anomala leonfairmairei nom. nov., Mimela decipiens (Arrow, 1917) (preoccupied by Mimela decipiens Hope, 1841) is replaced by Mimela arrowi nom. nov. The taxonomic status or level of several taxa is changed and 50 new synonyms are proposed. |
