Current name for species
editIt appears from the New Zealand Organisms Register that the current accepted name for this species is Heterocrossa gonosemana Meyrick, 1882. I refer any other editors to Volume 9 of the Insects of Hawai where Zimmerman, on page 797 argues that the Heterocrassa genus should not a synonym of Carposina as the genitalia in this genus are distinctive. This was accepted by Dugdale in Lepidoptera - annotated catalogue, and keys to family-group taxa as well as in the 2012 publication New Zealand Inventory of Biodiversity. Unless other editors have an objection I propose editing this article to reflect this.Ambrosia10 (talk) 02:44, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
Requested move 13 June 2018
edit- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Moved along with
- Carposina iophaea → Heterocrossa iophaea
- Heterocrossa ignobilis
- Heterocrossa gonosemana
- Heterocrossa exochana
- Heterocrossa eriphylla
- Heterocrossa epomiana
- Heterocrossa cryodana
In the future, please consider bundling similar requests per procedure at WP:RM#CM; I understand that it took several days to research, but moving one by one could have resulted in inconsistency. Non-experts were unlikely to object, anyway. Thanks. No such user (talk) 12:11, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
Carposina gonosemana → Heterocrossa gonosemana – The New Zealand Organisms Register states that the current accepted name for this species is Heterocrossa gonosemana Meyrick, 1882. I refer any other editors to Volume 9 of the Insects of Hawai where Zimmerman, on page 797 argues that the Heterocrassa genus should not a synonym of Carposina as the genitalia in this genus are distinctive. This was accepted by Dugdale in Lepidoptera - annotated catalogue, and keys to family-group taxa as well as in the 2012 publication New Zealand Inventory of Biodiversity. This is set out in the taxonomy section of edited article and as such I request that this article be moved to the currently correct species name. Ambrosia10 (talk) 21:54, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
