Wolfgang Lorenz commented on "Sphecidae":
@Cyndy Parr: @Cindy Megalomma Westwood 1841 (Coleoptera Carabidae Cicindelinae) has priority. The replacement name for its junior homonym in Hymenoptera Sphecidae is Megistommum Schulz 1906. As for its third homonym (Megalomma Johannsson 1926, Polychaeta Sabellidae), it is still listed as a valid genus name with more than 30 species in the World Polychaeta Database. Maybe Geoff Read can help us. A recent catalogue of Megistommum is here: http://researcharchive.calacademy.org/research/entomology/Entomology_Resources/Hymenoptera/sphecidae/Genera_and_species_pdf/Megistommum.pdf Megalomma is areal mess, because there are even homonyms among binomina, e.g., Megalomma vigilans, Megalomma bioculatum. If you need, I can send you a list of all known combinations. Wolfgang
