The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has conserved the spelling of the specific name of Lema decempunctata Gebler, 1829. The name was originally published as {\textquotedblleft}L. ropunctata{\textquotedblright}, but prevailing usage is of the spelling decempunctata as the former has been regarded by most subsequent taxonomists as a typesetting error.
