Timomenus komarowi (Semenov, 1901)

Opisthocosmia komarowi Semenov, 1901: 98 , two figs (lectotype – , “ Corea septentr.: vallis Sadegii , 25.VIII 1897, Wl. Komarow ”; in Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg; here designated).

Timomenus komarovi: Bey-Bienko, 1936 : figs 64-66; Sakai, 1982: 46; Storozhenko, 1984: 6, fig. 8; Storozhenko, 1986: 320, figs. 161,5, 162,1,2; Steinmann, 1989: 728; Moon & Kim, 1991: 72; Sakai, 1994: 241. Unavailable name (Article 33.3) of the Code [ 2].

NOTES. Incorrect subsequent spelling by Bey-Bienko [ 1] was perpetuated by many subsequent authors, notably by Sakai [ 4, 5], Steimann [ 7], Storozhenko [ 8, 9], and Moon & Kim [ 3]. In the Catalogue of Steinmann [ 7] the male from Korea was mentioned as holotype. But the original description of Semenov [ 6] was based on two specimens, male and female. Therefore (Articles 73.2, 74.1 of the Code) the male kept in the collection of the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (St. Petersburg) is designated here as a lectotype, and the female (with the same label) is marked as paralectotype of T. komarowi .
