Comments:
  • • conserved (nom. cons.) against the homotypic synonym (Shenzhen ICN Art. 14.4 & App. III) Mariana Hill, nom. rej.
  • • acceptance of authorship "Adans." rather than "Vaill." reflects favorable outcome of a proposal to suppress Steinwehr's 1754-1756 German translation of Vaillant's work (Shenzhen ICN App. I)
