Borlasia cephalothrix Diesing, 1850

Remarks. Diesing (1850: 241) established Borlasia cephalothrix Diesing, 1850 as a junior synonym of Cephalothrix coeca Örsted, 1843 . Gibson (1995: 307) regarded B. cephalothrix as an available name, and one of the junior synonyms of C. linearis . However, according to Article 11.6 of the Code (ICZN 1999)—which states “A name which when first published in an available work was treated as a junior synonym of a name then used as valid is not thereby made available”—the name cephalothrix Diesing, 1850 , as published in the binomen Borlasia cephalothrix , is not available.
