 His new genus name prevailed and, when the Italian zoologist Tommaso Salvadori combined it with the earlier specific name in 1891, it became a tautonym (a scientific name in which the two parts are identical).Lesson also included species of the "Tanygnathus" and "Psittacula" genera in "Mascarinus", but this was not accepted by other writers.The following year, the German herpetologist Johann Georg Wagler erected the genus "Coracopsis" for the Mascarene parrot (which became "Coracopsis mascarina" under this system) and the lesser vasa parrot ("Coracopsis nigra").
