Abstract

The purpose of this application is to provide for the retention of the name maculata Linnaeus in the genus Vespula, maculata Fabricius in the genus Oeropales, and the rejection of maculata Drury as published in the genera Vesrpa and Srphex and of maculata Scopoli as published in the genus Vespa. All of these names have entered into either primary or secondary homonymy.
