- W2352960340 abstract "Noetling (1897: 14) named the echinoid genus Protechinus from the Maastrichtian of Pakistan. Lambert (1898: 126) replaced the name Protechinus with a new name, Noetlingia, because Austin (1860: 446) had previously used the name Protoechinus for a different echinoid from the Carboniferous of Ireland. However, Noetlingia Lambert, 1898 is itself preoccupied by Noetlingia Hall & Clark, 1893, a brachiopod, and was accordingly replaced by Noetlingaster Vredenburg, 1911. Since then, Noetlingaster has been in general use for this genus (e.g., Mortensen 1940, Smith 1995). Apparently unaware of Noetling’s name, Lavocat (1961) described an erinaceid insectivore from the Miocene of Beni Mellal, Morocco, as the new genus and species Protechinus salis. The genus has rarely been referred to in the literature, and McKenna & Bell (1997) listed it as a synonym of Amphechinus Aymard, 1850. However, Benammi (2006) and Butler (2010) still recognized it as a distinct genus. The current version of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Anonymous 1999) stipulates that a oneletter difference is sufficient to prevent homonymy between two genus-group names (Art. 56.2); thus, Protechinus Noetling, 1897 is not a junior homonym of Protoechinus Austin, 1860, and potentially an available name. Prevailing usage may be preserved if the senior synonym or homonym has not been used as a valid name since 1899, among other conditions (Art. 23.9), but Protechinus Noetling, 1897 was used by Noetling (1903). Thus, Protechinus Noetling, 1897 is valid and a senior objective synonym of Noetlingia Lambert, 1898 and Noetlingaster Vredenburg, 1911. Four species are currently recognized in the genus (Smith & Jeffery 2000): Protechinus complicatus Noetling, 1897, the type species by original monotypy; Protechinus emiratescus (Ali, 1989); Protechinus sphericus (Ali, 1992); and Protechinus monotuberculatus (Smith, in Smith & Jeffery, 2000). In addition, Protechinus Lavocat, 1961 is an unavailable junior homonym of Protechinus Noetling, 1897. I therefore propose the name Mellalechinus nom. nov. as a replacement name for Protechinus Lavocat, 1961. The type by original monotypy under Protechinus Lavocat, 1961, and only described species is Mellalechinus salis (Lavocat, 1961), originally Protechinus salis. The new name combines the toponym of the fossil site where the genus was first found, Beni Mellal, with the Ancient Greek term ἐχῖνος (echinos). This word was used for both hedgehogs and sea urchins (Liddell et al. 1940), and has been adopted as a standard element of modern generic names in both groups, leading to the homonymy noted here." @default.
