Amathia (Amathia) pulchra Miers 1885: 589 .

Anamathia pulchra Miers 1886: 26 View in CoL , pl. IV, fig. 1.

Remarks. Originally assigned to Amathia (Miers 1885) , but ultimately to “ Anamathia S.I. Smith, 1884 ” (Miers 1886), Scyramathia A. Milne-Edwards, 1881 ( Alcock 1895) and Rochinia A. Milne-Edwards, 1875 ( Sakai 1938) . None of these revisions cite Miers 1885. Alphonse Milne-Edwards & Bouvier (1900: 131) cited “1881. Scyramathia . A. Milne-Edwards, C. R. Acad. des Se., 5 déc. 1881 ” and this is followed by Alcock (1895: 201). Rathbun (1925: 204) cited 1880 as the authority date for Scyramathia and this appears to be correct as the BL copy (call number AC. 424) of Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de l'Académie des Sciences Volume 91, sheets 33–58, pages 251–448, containing the paper of A. Milne-Edwards (1880b) is dated with a red British Museum Stamp “6 OC 80”. This availability date in London confirms Scyramathia A. Milne-Edwards, 1880 . Furthermore, volume 7 of the Proceedings of the U.S. National Museum has the replacement name Anamathia S.I. Smith for the preoccupied Amathia Roux, 1828 and was actually published in 1885 (ICZN Opinion 712).

Valid as Rochinia pulchra (Miers, 1885) .
