28. Zygaena (Mesembrynus) corycia r. wiltshirei Bytinski-Salz, 1936

Zygaena corycia ‘race’ Zygaena wiltshirei Bytinski-Salz, 1936: Ent. Rec. J. Var. 48 (Suppl.): (1)-(6): (1).

Original material examined.

Labelled as “Paratype” 1♂ ( ZHM 61384 View Materials ) (Fig. 28 View Figures 19–28 ). " SYRIA // Z. corycia / ssp. / wiltshirei / By.S. / PARATYPE / ex coll. / Dr. H. Bytinski-Salz // Coll. Bytinski-Salz / Eing. Nr. 20, 1960 // ssp. wiltshirei / By.S. // ZMH 61384 View Materials " .

Original locality.

‘Kineseh’ [Lebanon: Djebel Kineseh].

Current status.

Infrasubspecific and hence unavailable name.

Remarks.

Bytinski-Salz (1936) proposed this name as a ‘race’ of Z. corycia Staudinger, 1871. Therefore, as stated by Article 45.6.1 ("the content of the work unambiguously reveals that the name was proposed for an infrasubspecific entity") it is deemed to be infrasubspecific name, which is hence unavailable. Zygaena corycia was downgraded to a subspecies of Z. (Mesembrynus) brizae (Esper, 1800) ( Hofmann and Tremewan 1996).
