Talk:Neofidia chapini

Kumari et al., 2020 does not list this species for Neofidia, despite the species being included in Fidia in Strother & Staines, 2008. After bringing the problem up in Village Pump last year (see here), I eventually decided to go with the assumption that it was included in Neofidia as well. From information I've since received from Shyamal, it turns out Neofidia chapini was supposed to be included after all, but it was left out by mistake. So thankfully it seems the assumption was correct.

From Shyamal on Wikipedia:

"I heard from Strother via my contact that Fidia chapini should have been included in Neofidia but for an oversight. The author noted it as an irony as it was named after a colleague Joan Chapin who always stressed thorough proofreading of manuscripts!"
