3 Skörvnöpparn, Umeå Supplement : 1-42 All diving beetle specific and subspecific names explained ANDERS. N. NILSSON Introduction The scientific name a of species is a binomen formed from a combination of the genus name and the specific name. To the name of a subspecies is added also a subspecific name. Specific and subspecific names are coordinated in zoology, i.e. all names within the so called species-group are available for usage at both levels (ICZN 1999: Article 46). The formation and usage of speciesgroup names is regulated by the Code (ICZN 1999), and the meaning of names is from this perspective of some interest. As species-group names have to agree in gender with the generic names which they are combined with, it has to be known if, and in what way, a certain name has to be inflected or not. One should here note, however, that my interpretations of inflections, as given in the list below, can always be challenged. Many names may be regarded as noun or adjectives, and according to the Code (Article ) the correct interpretation depends on the evidence given in the original description itself. As most older, and quite a few of the modern names were given without clear etymological statements, their intented meanings in many cases remain ambiguous. The meaning of names is of course also of some interest in itself, providing some insight into the minds and activities of those who have described the species and chosen their names. As an offspring from my work with the compilation of a world catalogue of the diving beetles in the family Dytiscidae (Nilsson 2001), I have earlier presented some more statistical aspects on the meaning and structure of specific and subspecific diving beetle names (Nilsson 2008). One of the more interesting results of that study being the strong tendency for patronyms and names based on geographical units being preferred by modern authors, instead of the more descriptive names in favour of the classical authors. A more linguistic interest for names is apt to create an awareness of and dislike for misspellings and other ill-formed names. One could argue that correctly formed and spelled names would be easier to remember and interpret for those who handle them. But the present trend in the interpretation of the Code seems to favour the usage of original spellings in most situations, nonwithstanding the missing correspondence between their formulation and intended meanings. Since October 2009 I do not any longer view the correction of a suffix of a species-group name formed from a personal name as being mandatory (cf. Article of the Code). Consequently, the original spellings of such names are now used as valid in my world catalogue, whatever etymological information was given in the original description, and e.g. Hydroporus rubyae is now considered an unjustified emendation of Hydroporus rubyi Larson, 1975, and both names are given in the list below. The present interpretation of the Code is based on the inquiry to the ICZN office made by Dr. H. Fery in This also means that all my corrections of patronyms published in Nilsson (2007) now have to be vieved as unjustified emendations, and the corresponding original spellings as the valid names of the affected species. I really feel sorry for having produced these not needed new names. There is a long tradition for providing explanations of species names in coleopterology, and I have found Schenkling s (1922) work especially inspiring. Much time has passed, however, since Schenkling compiled his list, representing only the German fauna as known by then, and with the present list I would like to expand and update the explanation of names given to species and subspecies associated with the family Dytiscidae up to the present day. As my list most probably includes several misinterpreations on the meanings of names in

4 2 Anders N. Nilsson combination with some suboptimal translations, the reader is encouraged to communicate all suggestions of improvements directly to the author. One should also remember that meanings are to be found at different levels: the literal meaning, the intended meaning, the hidden meaning, and so on. I have not separated these levels in a strict way, although I am aware of the problem. How to read the name list Each entry is given as: name in bold, genus endings (if present), explanation (meaning, person, geographical unit etc.), name kind (abbreviated), language (optional), and word class (abbreviated). Gender endings of adjectives are given in the following order: (1) masculine, (2) feminine, and (3) neuter. When more than one ending have been used, only one of the forms is listed as an entry, giving priority to masculinum. Name kind categorized as: (comb.) combination, (descr.) descriptive, (epoch) epoch or time period, (geogr.) geographical name, (hab.) habitat, (myth.) mythological, (other) other, (pers.) personal name (* indicates female), (people) people or tribe, and (?) unknown. Word class abbreviated as: (adj. comp.) comparative adjective, (adj. ) inflected adjective, (adj. name) name as adjective, (adj. un) uninflected adjective, (adj. ) as adjective (e.g. perfect and present participle), (noun app.) noun in apposition, (noun gen.) noun in genitive form, and (prep.) preposition. Identical names with different meanings are separated by their different original genus names. All mandatory changes of spelling of names have been applied, i.e. not all names are given in their original form. All known names are included, valid or invalid, available or not. Names given to fossil species are also included. When a name is interpreted as misspelled, I have added the supposed correct spelling within parenthesis after the explanation.
