Nomenclatural note
Invalid: Price et al. (1986) report that Montagne (1846: 130), in the new entry for his new taxon Corallina microptera, commented on its occurrence in Tenerife as "avec Arthrocardia lobata Nob.". There seems to be no subsequent recognition of this brief reference to the plant, nor development of further information on what it represents. The relationship with Corallina lobata Lamouroux is therefore unclear. The record is there referred to only for completeness (Guiry, pers. comm.). - (11 May 2006) - G.M. Guiry
