109. Euphydryas f. urbanoides Warnecke, 1942

Original combination.

" Melitaea maturna L., ?, n. f. urbanoides." Warnecke, 1942 Dt. Ent. Z. Iris 56: 103.

Current combination.

Euphydryas maturna f. urbanoides (Warnecke, 1942).

Current status.

Infrasubspecific and hence unavailable name.

Original material.

Labelled as “Type” 2?? (ZMH 827658-827659) (Fig. 109 ). "Holstein / Innien, e.l. / 1913 Selzer" // "? nf. urbanoides / Warn. Type / Iris 1942, 103" // "L.25 / Melitaea maturna - / urbanoides / Warn." // "ZMH 827658"; "Holstein / Innien / [illegible]" // "VON / G. WARNECKE / W. LINZ. HAMB." // " Sig. W. Linz / Eing. 12 - 74" // "ZMH 827658" .

Original locality.

Germany: "Innien bei Neumünster (Holstein)."; Schleswig-Holstein.

Remarks.

Warnecke (1942) proposed this name as a “form” of Melitaea maturna (Linnaeus, 1761). According to article 45.6.1 ( ICZN 1999), it is infrasubspecific if the content of the work unambiguously reveals that the name was proposed for an infrasubspecific entity, and is hence unavailable. The title already indicates that this form constitutes an individual aberration and thus an unavailable name.
