Tropidolaemus Wagler, 1830 and Cophias wagleri F. Boie, 1827 (currently Tropidolaemus wagleri) (Reptilia, Squamata, viperidae): usage conserved
Abstract

The Commission has conserved under the plenary power the usage of the specific name wagleri for a species of venomous snake by ruling that the specific name Cophias wagleri was established by F. Boie (1827), and by designating a neotype. The Commission has ruled that Trigonocephalus [Cophias] wagleri was established by Schlegel (1826) as a separate taxon and not as a replacement name.
