Taxonomy
Both available names have been wrongly synonymised under Atteva pustulella (Walsingham, 1897) and reinstated as a valid species (Meyrick, 1914; Walsingham, 1914). However, it seems that both works were overlooked by John B. Heppner and W. Donald Duckworth (1983) and by Heppner (1984) who continued to follow Walsingham's synonymy.
gollark: It seems like it's already quite bad, and this would presumably be good for the booster shots some places are talking about.
gollark: With the mRNA/viral vector vaccines, it would be pretty easy to swap out the spike protein for delta-variant ones and probably get better immunity to it, right? Is anyone doing this? It seems like a very obvious idea.
gollark: This "gematria" thing reminds me of that excellent excessively pun-heavy bible fanfiction I read but not funny.
gollark: Like the xkcd about playing conspiracy theories off against each other?
gollark: I think that's right.
