. Bulletin of zoological nomenclature. 256 BvUetin of Zoological Nomenclature 6. It is stated in Copenhagen Decisions zool. Nomencl. : 34, para. 50 (l)(a) that if the name of the type-genus of a family-group taxon consists of or ends in a word of Greek or Latin origin, the family-group name is to be formed by replacing the genitive singular termination of that word by the termination appropriate to the category in the family-group ; and (para. 50 (l)(b)) that a family-group name formed in contravention of the above is to be auto- matically corrected. The simple appUcation of this rule to the present case removes the homonymy between the family-group names in question. 7. We therefore ask the International Commission on Zoological Nomen- clature :— (1) to place the following names on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology: (a) Phaenomeris Hope, 1833 (gender: femmine), type-species, by monotjrpy, Phaenomeris m/xgnifica Hope, 1833 ; (b) Pha^nom^rus Schonherr, 1836 (gender : masculine), type-species, by original designation, Phaenom^rus sundeioalli Boheman in Schonhen-, 1836 ; (2) to place the following names on the Official List of Specific Names in Zoology: (a) magnifica Hope, 1833, as pubhshed in the binomen Phaenmneris magnifica (type-species of Phaenomeris Hope, 1833); (b) sundevxdli Boheman in Schonherr, 1836, as pubhshed in the binomen Phaenomenis sundetvalli (type-species of Phaenom^rus Schonherr, 1836); (3) to place the following names on the Official List of Family-Group Names in Zoology: (a) PHAENOMERIDIDAE Ohaus, 1913 (correction of phabnomeridae) (type-genus : Phaerumieris Hope, 1833) ; (b) PHAENOMEKINA Faust, 1898 (available for a family-group taxon below subfamily level) (type-genus : Phaenom^rm Schonherr, 1836); (4) to place the following family-group names on the Official Index of Rejected and InvaUd Family-Group Names in Zoology : (a) PHAENOMERi Csiki, 1936 ; (b) PHAENOMERTNA Hustachc, 1936 (type-genus in each case Phaeno- merus Schonherr, 183
