Nomenclatural note
"Such a new combination was proposed by Ardissone (1878: 150). Surprisingly, this species, by Hauck (1883: 259) reported among the synonyms of Halydictyon %u201CHalodictyon%u201D mirabile, was later ignored by Ardissone himself (Ardissone, 1883: 438). However, Ardissone (op. cit.) observed that possibly Halydictyon 'Halodictyon' is not sufficiently distinct from Hanowia 'Hanovia' Sonder." (Cormaci & al. 2023: 565). - (11 December 2023) - M.D. Guiry
