A7256CC63A635AA59F5860A82DF8BC9C.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific name " Pseudalomya truncaticornis " is derived from the Latin " truncati - " (meaning " maimed " or " having appendages cut off ") plus " cornis " (meaning " horned "). It refers to the truncated apex of the horn on the frons in this species. Name is an adjective.	en	Chen, Hsuan-Pu, Kikuchi, Namiki, Shiao, Shiuh-Feng (2024): Discovery of a new Pseudalomya Telenga, 1930 (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Ichneumoninae) species from Taiwan and its implications for the systematic position of this genus.
