🧍 Arachnia Pine and Georg 1969 (Approved Lists 1980) is a later homonym of a genus name with standing in the zoological (animal) nomenclature: Arachnia Wheeler, 1903. Principle 2 of the 2008 Code is not retroactive, so the name does not contravene the Code because of this homonymy. — Crook M. Personal communication, 2021-08-19.
🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "ARAC" for this genus name but this does not appear to be of practical relevance any longer.Publication:
