[Taxacom] hönei or hoeni animal species name

[Francisco Welter-Schultes]

My recommendation: cite the original spelling of the name as hönei, and 
the correct spelling that must be used for a currently valid species 
name as hoenei.
Höne is very probably of German origin in the sense of the Code. 
Theoretically this could also be a Hungarian or Turkish name, but this 
one should be German. Höne in this spelling is not a very frequent 
surname, Höhne is more frequent.
Hermann Höne (1883–1963) was a German lepidopterist.

Best wishes
Francisco
