Description
Summary:The genus name <i>Staffia</i> Heinrich, 1999 published for a Jurassic allotherian mammal from Tendaguru, Tanzania, is preoccupied by <i>Staffia</i> Schubert, 1911 (Protista, Foraminifera). A replacement name, <i>Allostaffia</i>, is proposed here. <br><br> Der Gattungsname <i>Staffia</i> Heinrich, 1999, der für einen Haramiyiden (Mammalia, Allotheria) aus dem Oberjura von Tendaguru, Tansania (Ostafrika) vergeben wurde, ist durch <i>Staffia</i> Schubert, 1911 (Protista, Foraminifera) präokkupiert. Er wird daher durch den neuen Namen <i>Allostaffia</i> ersetzt. <br><br> doi:<a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/mmng.20040070108" target="_blank">10.1002/mmng.20040070108</a>
