Tchindonova, Michel E. Hendrickx Julia G., 2020, Validation of Neobirsteiniamysis Hendrickx and Tchindonova, proposed for the nomen nudum Birsteiniamysis Tchindonova (Crustacea: Mysida), Nauplius (e 2020040) 28, pp. 1-2 : 1

Mysidae , new genus, type species

The genus name Neobirsteiniamysis was proposed by Hendrickx et al. (2020) for the nomen nudum Birsteiniamysis Tchindonova ( Tchindonova, 1979; 1981; 1993) (see Hendrickx et al., 2020). The article in which Neobirsteiniamysis was originally proposed was published online only ( Hendrickx et al., 2020) but did not include a ZooBank registration number (LISD) required for validation of new names in electronic-only publications. Neobirsteiniamysis as originally proposed is therefore not available according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature ( ICZN, 2012). The present note serves to validate the name Neobirsteiniamysis by fulfilling the ICZN conditions for nomenclatural availability.
