Abstract

Here, we rectify two earlier errors when we published unavailable taxonomical names in iScience. We did not notice that the journal is not permanently archived by an organization independent of the publisher. Therefore, the proposed names are unavailable in the sense of the Code. One tribe and one species are validly described here. The tribe Tibionemini Motyka, Kusy, Arias, Bybee et Bocak, trib. nov. is placed in Pityobiinae (Coleoptera: Elateridae) and Hiekeolycus winkleri Kazantsev et Yamamoto sp. nov. in Erotinae: Dictyopterini (Coleoptera, Lycidae). Both descriptions and illustrations are republished from the original publication to present all necessary information in this article.
