Taxonomic remark Available name (ICZN Opinion 1754, 1994). Kerzhner, 1991 wrote: Geoffroy (1762) included ten taxonomic species in the genus. The identity is known to me of nine of these species: one is placed in the Leiodidae and eight (including both those that have a reference to Linnaeus, 1758) are placed in the Silphidae. ... It is a matter for discussion whether the name Peltis should be attributed to Müller (1776), who was the first author to include in the genus species of the Peltidae as now understood, or to Kugelann (1792), who restricted the use of the name to species of the Peltidae alone (see above). As Peltis has been consistently used with Kugelann's authorship and has never been used with the authorship of Müller, I propose that Kugelann's authorship be accepted. (This proposal was subsequently accepted by the ICZN). [details]
