[Taxacom] IRMNG update

[Stephen Thorpe]

The junior homonym, Aellopos Muenster, 1836 (a fossil fish), seems to have been replaced by the next oldest name in its synonymy, i.e. Spathobatis Thiollière, 1849.

 Funny that you
 should mention the IRMNG, as it just came to my attention
 
 that a genus appearing there (Aellopos
 Muenster, 1836) is apparently 
 listed as
 valid, despite being a junior homonym of Aellopos Huebner,
 1819.
 
 Would anyone here
 know more details, such as whether this name has been 
 replaced already? If so, I'd be
 grateful.
 
 Peace,
