Editorial reviewA practical orientation to terminology and classification, particularly when read beside dated observations, specimens or technical literature. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1892, 2019—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Carmenta, armasata and species providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Critical limits

Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
