Authorship of the generic name Pochytoides (Araneae, Salticidae)

Department of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Taxonomy, Wrocław University, Przybyszewskiego 65, PL 51-148 Wrocław, Poland
Araneae Salticidae Pochytoides

Abstract

       I published recently (Wesołowska 2018) a revision of the African genus of jumping spider Pochytoides. The genus includes eight species now. However, as there is some controversy concerning the authorship of this generic name, this matter needs elucidation.
