[QUOTE="Björn Bergenholtz, post: 3700175, member: 113430"] Thanks Mark, note that von Pelzeln's question mark wasn´t cited by Eudes-Deslongchamps. To this we might add (for the sake of completeness); "[I]Thauma[U]n[/U]tias linnei[/I]", cited by Boucard in his [I]Genera of humming birds [: being also a complete monograph of these birds[/I][COLOR="red"]*[/COLOR]] ([URL="https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/39460#page/198/mode/1up"][U]here[/U][/URL]), from 1894-1895, listed as a synonym for "[I]Polytmus thaumantias[/I]" [today's [I]Polytmus guainumbi thaumantias[/I]], but note that Boucard there refer this spelling to "Bon. Rev. and Mag. Zool., 1854, p. 255" ([URL="https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/13681326#page/265/mode/1up"][U]here[/U][/URL])... where this name (as we´ve already, repeatedly, have verified) was written "[I]linnæi[/I]" (ending in ligature + i = [I]-æi[/I]). That´s all the "[I]linnei[/I]" Hummingbirds I can find. Two incorrect subsequent spellings, that´s all. For two different taxa (today). Both originally coined as [I]Linnæi[/I]/[I]linnæi[/I] ... Thereby the question still stands (regardless of either one "validly created", or not): Why did Gould's "[I]Linnæi[/I]", of 1861 [a synonym of ([I]P[/I].) [I]A. fimbriata[/I]], end up in today's [I]HBW Alive Key[/I] entry for [I]linnei[/I] ...? [B][COLOR="blue"]Why?[/COLOR][/B] Björn ______________________________________________________________ [COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR]The whole book itself is "Dedicated to the Memory of Linné, The Father of Systematical Classification, and Binomial Nomenclature."
