Cyclodorippe agassizii A. Milne-Edwards, 1880

Cyclodorippe agassizii A. Milne-Edwards, 1880: 25 .

PARALECTOTYPE. — MNHN-B13492, West Indies, Carriacou, Blake, stn 238, 127 fathoms (232 m), A. Agassiz coll., ♂ 6.0 × 6.2 mm, carapace damaged, uncomplete, only chelipeds and 2 other pereopods remaining. — Original label: “Cariacou [sic], Blake, Nº 238, 127 brasses, A. Agassiz, TYPE”.

REMARKS

The MNHN specimen, originally not mentioned in A. Milne-Edwards (1880), must be considered a syntype. A label from Tavares (1992) indicated: “Specimen compared with the female holotype ”. In fact, “ holotype ” constitutes a misuse of the Code ( ICZN 1999: Art. 74.5) and must be replaced by lectotype (lectotype, MCZ 6680, ♀ 7.5 × 8 mm, Blake, stn 241, 163 fathoms [298 m], see Tavares 1996: 263).
