Discussion: Hall (1981:1087) employed Dama Zimmermann, 1780, of which Dama virginiana (= Odocoileus virginianus) is the type, for this genus, but Dama Frisch, 1775, with Cervus dama (= Dama dama) as type has priority and thus preoccupies Dama Zimmermann, 1780 (International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, 1960).
