Replacement name for the crustacean genus Hirayamaia (Amphipoda, Senticaudata, Corophiidae) proposed by Bousfield and Hoover (1997) in their revision of the Corophiidae of the Pacific coast of North America

摘要

It has recently been brought to my attention that the amphipod name Hirayamaia Bousfield and Hoover (1997) is a junior homonym. Following Article 60 of the ICZN (ICZN, 1999), I here propose a replacement name.
