Current combination.

Lycaena alciphron f. emarginata (Warnecke, 1942).

Current status.

Infrasubspecific and hence unavailable name.

Original material.

Labelled as “Type” 1? (ZMH 827527) (Fig. 70 ). "Schlesw. - Holst. / Kr. / Bockhorn / W. Wolf leg. / 14.7.40" // "Katalog Nr. / L 2322" // "? nf. emarginata / Warn. Type / Iris 1942, 103" // " Chrysophanus / alciphron / emarginata Warn. / Type / L.31" // " Sig. G. Warnecke / Eing. Nr. 5, 1945" // "ZMH 827527" .

Original locality.

Germany: “Segeberg”; Schleswig-Holstein publication says Segeberg; the label of the specimen treated as type by Warnecke states Lauenburg crossed out and replaced by Bockhorn.

Remarks.

Warnecke (1942) proposed this name as a form of C. alciphron (Rottemburg, 1775). 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. Already the title of Warnecke (1942) paper reveals that this form was described as an aberration and not as a subspecies.
