Taxonomic remark Invalid name (suppressed for priority but not homonymy, refer ICZN Index). From Pitkin & Jenkins, 2020: Hemming (1967) stated:- Until recently the name Phryne Herrich-Schaeffer was invalid, as being a junior homonym of the older name Phryne Meigen, 1800 (Nouvelle Classification Mouches deux Ailes : 16). As such, it was replaced by the name Triphysa Zeller, 1850, the name by which this genus has ever since been known. The stability so established was endangered some years ago when an application was submitted to the Commission on behalf of specialists in the Order Diptera for the suppression under the Plenary Powers of Meigen's Nouvelle Classification, for, unless preventive action was taken, the name Phryne Herrich-Schaeffer in the Lepidoptera would have become an available name and would have taken the place of its well-known replacement name Triphysa Zeller. In order to prevent this objectionable development, the Commission, when suppressing the Meigen pamphlet of 1800, used its Plenary Powers also to suppress the name Phryne Herrich-Schaeffer for the purposes of the Law of Priority but not for those of the Law of Homonymy, at the same time placing that name on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Generic Names in Zoology as Name No. 1652. This decision was promulgated by the Commission in its Opinion 678, published in October 1963 (Bull. Zool. Nom. 20 : 339-342). [details]
