DIESEL ABEGG, ARTHUR et al. Cases of unjustified emendations of scientific names dedicated to people in tarantulas (Mygalomorphae: Theraphosidae). Rev. Colomb. Entomol. [online]. 2016, vol.42, n.2, pp.201-202. ISSN 0120-0488.

The cases of unjustified emendations in scientific names dedicated to people, published because of sex or the number of dedicatees, in the family Theraphosidae were analyzed. There were found three cases, which are discussed according to the rules of zoological nomenclature. The unjustified emendations are considered available but permanently invalid as junior synonyms of the original names.
