Ernestia and Panzeria are already synonymous according to most, if not all, authors. The question you raise is whether Ernestia or Panzeria is the valid name.

I'm very curious to the arguments for Panzeria.
It seems that Ernestia (R.D 1830: pag 60) antecedents Panzeria (RD 1830: pag 68), but I will check that.

If correct, Ernestia must have preference based on anciennity.
