The genus Thyone Oken, 1815 is complex, and has even been called a supergenus, which currently contains 67 nominal species (WoRMS, 2023) and is urgently in need of revision. This contribution provides an accurate description of the here designated neotype and as such, it brings clarity to the taxonomic definition of the type species of the genus: the previously poorly understood Thyone fusus.
属 Thyone Oken, 1815 较为复杂,甚至曾被称为超属,目前包含 67 个有效种(WoRMS,2023),迫切需要修订。本贡献提供了这里指定的新模式标本的准确描述,从而使属的模式种 Thyone fusus 的分类定义更加清晰:之前人们对它的了解甚少。
