From editor or global species database
Authority Jeekel (1971, p80) gives the authority year for the genus as 1887 instead of 1888, which most other sources use. Bollman's 1888 "Notes upon a collection of Myriapoda from East Tennessee, with description of a new genus and six new species" is listed in Bollman 1893 as being published in 1888. Below the author name, there is a note which states "Read October 3, 1887," which may be the source of the confusion [details]
Taxonomic remark The proper generic placement of S. californica, S. carmela, and S. nana are in doubt. In Shear's papers on the western Striariidae, he does not formally move these three species to other genera, but it is unlikely that they are congeneric with other Striaria. Shear & Krejca (2007) on page 27 state: "If, as we suspect, Striaria nana Loomis 1936 and Striaria carmela Chamberlin 1947 are both junior synonyms of S. californica (they are certainly synonyms of each other, based on an examination of the types [USNM]; nana is the senior name), it indeed belongs to an undiagnosed genus." They also state that S. californica may belong in Amplaria or an undescribed genus. [details]
