Hartogia rosacea Notes


The species name appears in the abstract of a presentation to the ASZ (citation) but not in the publication of that presentation (citation). It is possible that she moved Proxenetes rosaceus Graff, 1882, into Hartogia when she described H. pontica and created the genus (citation), but that publication is not available to me. (P. rosaceus is described from Madeira and the Skagerrak, and she cites those location for H. rosacea in her abstract.) More than likely, she abandoned describing H. rosacea, and the name is either a nomen nudum or is a synonym of P. rosaceus.
