  • 🧍 Replacement of the illegitimate name Yania halotolerans Li et al. 2004, which is illegitimate because of precedence of the genus name Yania Roewer 1919 (Opiliones, Arachnida, Arthropoda, Animalia), and of precedence of the genus name Yania Huang 1997 (Hesperiidae, Papilionoidea, Heteroneura, Glossata, Lepidoptera, Insecta, Arthropoda, Animalia) [Principle 2]. Consequently, a new species designation Yaniella halotolerans (Li et al. 2004) Li et al. 2008 has been proposed by Li et al. 2008. Publication: Li WJ, Chen HH, Xu P, Zhang YQ, Schumann P, Tang SK, Xu LH, Jiang CL. Yania halotolerans gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the suborder Micrococcineae from saline soil in China.
