Apogonia leuweni Brenske, 1894

Apogonia Leuweni Brenske, 1894b: 275 ; Dalla Torre, 1912: 139 (catalogue)

Apogonia Leeuweni (incorrect subsequent spelling): Ritsema, 1896d: 56 (catalogue)

Apogonia leuveni (incorrect subsequent spelling): Heller, 1897a: 7 (key)

Apogonia Leeuweni (unjustified emendation): Brenske, 1900a: 145; Dalla Torre, 1912: 139 (catalogue); Moser, 1931: 2

Type locality: "Soekaranda, Nordost­Sumatra".

Distribution: Indonesia (Sumatra) ( Brenske 1894b).

Remark: Brenske (1900a) emended the name to A. leeuweni . This emendation cannot be considered as justified according to Article 33 of ICZN (1999) as there is no clear evidence of an authorís lapsus calami or printerís error in the original paper as defined by Article 32.5 of ICZN (1999). Therefore A. leuweni should be maintained as the original spelling. After 1900, A. leuweni has been listed as A. leeuweni only by Dalla Torre (1912) and Moser (1931).
