It is clear that parentheses are needed in this case.

Dear members,
While I am working on some species of
Korean Adelidae, I found *Nemophora
tyriochrysa* was first described as
*Nemotois tyriochrysa* by Meyrick in
1935. However, the name is currently
known as *Nemophora tyriochrysa*
Meyrick, 1935, not as *Nemophora
tyriochrysa* (Meyrick, 1935). I looked at
the paper and found there is a section
for Adelidae beginning from page 93
and the first species briefly described
is "*Nemotois raddei* REB." but the
rest species are listed as "*N. x*"
instead of "*Nemotois x*" and one of
them is "*N. tyriochrysa* n. sp." (on
p. 94).
The paper is as follows:
A. Caradja, E. Meyrick
Materialien zu einer Microlepidopteren
fauna der Chinesischen Provinzen
Kiangsu, Chekiang und Hunan
Friedländer in Komm, Berlin, Germany
(1935)
[in German]
My question is: shouldn't we consider
the abbreviated "*N.*" is in fact "
*Nemotois*", therefore *Nemophora
tyriochrysa* should be with the author
name in parentheses? If not, where can
I find the ICZN rule on this? Maybe
I am not familiar enough with the
nomenclatural rules.
