796A87DFFFE5FFA58885FBB7FB9CC11A.taxon	discussion	The senior homonym is Brownia d’Orbigny, 1841 (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Atlantidae), as listed by Scudder (1882) and Neave (1939), and an objective synonym of Helicophlegma d’Orbigny, 1841. Tesch (1908) treated Helicophlegma d’Orbigny as a junior synonym of Oxygyrus Benson, 1835, which is itself now a junior synonym of Atlanta Lesueur, 1817. The further complicated taxonomy of these pelagic gastropods is partially illustrated by the oldest synonyms listed here as derived from MolluscaBase (2023):	en	Johnson, Paul J.

796A87DFFFE5FFA58885FBB7FB9CC11A.taxon	discussion	The junior homonym Brownia Nunberg, 1963 was proposed for a group of bark beetles in the Xyloborini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae). Wood (1980) synonymized Brownia Nunberg (as “ Browneia ”) with Ambrosiodmus Hopkins, 1915, then (Wood 1986) repeated the “ Browneia ” misspelling.	en	Johnson, Paul J.

796A87DFFFE5FFA58885FBB7FB9CC11A.taxon	discussion	With regard to digital searches for homonyms, the “ candidatus ” name Brownia rhizoecola (Gruwell et al. 2010) is applied to a P-endosymbiotic bacterium from mealybugs (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae). This name is regulated by the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (Oren et al. 2021; Parker et al. 2008), not the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999: Art. 1), and does not apply to the circumstances above.	en	Johnson, Paul J.
