Extract

The name Syneta is usually attributed to Lacordaire, who was the first to publish it with a description (1845, Mém. Soc. Roy. Sci. Liége 3:226). It has also been attributed to Dejean, for it first appeared in the third edition of his Catalogue des Coléoptères (1837, p. 385) where it is ascribed to Eschscholtz. Barber and Bridwell (1940, Bull. Brooklyn Ent. Soc. 35: 1–12) showed that such names were often validated by publication in the Dejean Catalog and that the chrysomelid names validated there should be attributed to Dejean, except those ascribed there to Chevrolat.
