Taxonomic vandalism - Wuster Gang of thieves - Vipers
GENUS ADELYNHOSERSERPENAE GEN. NOV. (2012)
Type species: Atropos nummifer Rüppell 1845
(Currently recognised in most contemporary texts as Atropoides
nummifer)
Diagnosis: Adelynhoserserpenae gen. nov. is easily separated
from the genus Atropoides by scalation. In
Adelynhoserserpenae males have 104-136 ventrals, versus 138-
155 in Atropoides (Campbell and Lamar 2004), females have
103-138 ventrals, versus 143-145 in Atropoides (Campbell and
Lamar 2004).
This difference reflects the physical reality that Atropoides is a
much longer and more slender animal than all species in
Adelynhoserserpenae gen. nov.
In Adelynhoserserpenae nasorostrals are often present, (as
opposed to always absent in Atropoides), there is a single row of
subfoveals separating prelacunal from supralabials (versus 1-3
rows of subfoveals separating prelacunal from supralabials in
Atropoides).
Atropides is defined above in this diagnosis as only including the
species taxon A. picadoi.
A. picadoi is a relatively thinly bodied species, versus the thickset body form of Adelynhoserserpenae.
Character states such as intersupraoculars, supralabials,
infalabials, dorsal mid-body scale rows and lateral body blotches
are highly variable both between and within species and are not
helpful in separating the genera.
However Atropoides picadoi has considerably smaller shields at
the back of the head than all species of Adelynhoserserpenae.
In Atropoides these shields would be defined as small, whereas
in Adelynhoserserpenae they’d be defined as medium (refer also
to fig. 91 in Campbell and Lamar 2004).
The genus Adelynhoserserpenae is found from northeastern
Mexico southward through Central America to central Panama.
They are usually forest dwellers.
For a detailed description of the snakes in the genus Atropoides
as defined until now (which would act to diagnose this new
genus in conjunction with the information above), refer to pages
274-290 of Campbell and Lamar (2004).
The very thickset build of Adelynhoserserpenae easily separates
them from other pitvipers.
Campbell and Lamar (2004), page 275, detailed minor
hemipenal differences between the species mexicanus and
picadoi, which was further investigated by Jadin, et. al. (2010)
who found little significant differences between the various
species in both genera.
However investigation of venom composition and toxicity is
required, as so far it has been shown that in
Adelynhoserserpenae it seems to be considerably less toxic to
humans than for Atropoides picadoi (Campbell and Lamar
2004)..
Etymology: Named in honour of my eldest daughter, Adelyn
Hoser, who by age 13 has more expertise with snakes than most
people many times her age.
She has been handling the world’s deadliest snakes since she
was a baby and with complete safety as they were all venomoid
(Hoser 2004), giving her unrivalled knowledge of the inner
workings of venomous snakes. Hence it’s fitting that she should
be recognised by having a genus of venomous snakes named in
her honour.

Underlined names in original document (not copied here as underlined) are OBJECTIVE synonyms (as in exactly the same type specimen or type species). Items in blue (others) are so-called subjective synonyms, but based on second authors taxonomic diagnosis are one and the same taxon as earlier items on right, meaning oldest available names must be used. Items in blue typically include specimens from same location and collection series and/or extremely closely related species if genus, with later authors typically lifting important diagnostic material from earlier authors papers (mainly uncited or alternatively derided, but bootlegged).
About half the junior synonyms have NOT been recorded in Zoobank (ICZN Repository) as of end January 2020 and many of the others are incompletely listed.
All senior Hoser names (most on this list) have been fully recorded in Zoobank at time of original publication since inception of Zoobank (ICZN), and also recorded on publication and archived at Zoological Record, National Library of Australia, Natural History Museum, UK, etc, and fully comply with rules of the in force International Code of Zoological Nomenclature.
