Nomenclatural note
Anagnostidis & Komárek (1988) proposed and accepted simultaneously two combinations, under two different genera (Leptolyngbya and Porphyrosiphon), based on the same species by Goor (1918), rendering both invalid. The validation follows the taxonomic opinion of Komárek & Anagnostidis (2005). - (23 March 2021) - M.D. Guiry
