Pitfalls of describing new taxa in the age of on-line publications and how to get out of there

Original language description

Over the past three decades, scientific articles became accessed predominantly via the Internet as electronic copies. This promoted the wide usage of electronic-only journals, which started to be used by some researchers for publishing new taxonomic names and nomenclatural acts without registration in ZooBank as required by the Amendment of International Code of Zoological Nomenclature for electronic publications since 2012, resulting in unavailability of such names and acts. Here we describe this situation, explain the current requirements of the ICZN and the way how to validate the previously unsuccessful nomenclatural changes. The following taxa of Trypanosomatidae (Euglenozoa: Kinetoplastea), originally published in on-line journals as unavailable due to lack of ZooBank registration, are validated here: Novymonas Kostygov et Yurchenko, gen. nov., Novymonas esmeraldas Votýpka, Kostygov, Maslov et Lukeš, sp. nov., Phytomonas borealis Ganyukova, Frolov et Kostygov sp. nov., Phytomonas lipae Frolov et Kostygov sp. nov., Jaenimonas Votýpka et Hamilton, gen. nov., and Jaenimonas drosophilae Votýpka et Hamilton, sp. nov. Subspecies Crithidia luciliae thermophila Roitman, Mundim, de Azevedo et Kitajima, 1977, stat. nov., is raised to species status: C. thermophila Roitman, Mundim, de Azevedo et Kitajima, 1977. The following new subjective synonyms are proposed: Crithidia thermophila = C. confusa Maslov et Lukeš, 2009, syn. nov. and Crithidia fasciculata Léger, 1902 = Crithidia luciliae (Strickland, 1911), syn. nov.
