Nomenclatural note
Dick Moe writes "I think that the noun that the epithet refers to is "ARGILLARIUS" which seems to be a medieval Latin term pertaining to the clay-use occupation. Forming the epithet by using the genitive is appropriate, and the genitive of argillarius is argillarii." - (21 February 2022) - M.D. Guiry
