Nomenclatural note
This name is allegedly necessary because the original name (Fossula G.R. Hasle, E.E. Syvertsen, & C.H. von Quillfeldt) supposedly contravened Art. 20.2, which proscribes technical terms in use in morphology as generic names. "Fossula" = "little furrow", L. - (07 June 2020) - Salvador Valenzuela Miranda
