Scleropauropus Silvestri, 1902 (Myriapoda, Pauropoda): usage conserved
Abstract

The Commission has conserved the usage of the name Scleropauropus Silvestri, 1902 for a group of pauropods (Myriapoda, Pauropoda) while also conserving as its type species the nominal species S. hastifer Silvestri, 1902, by replacing with an identical neotype the unsuitable holotypes of both S. hastifer Silvestri, 1902 (type species by monotypy) and S. lyrifer Remy, 1936 (consistently, but erroneously treated as the type species of Scleropauropus since Remy (1957)).
