Taxonomy Day (1975: 205) has been used as the source for the new combination of Pomatoceros taeniatus. However, he only (when discussing Pomatoceros caeruleus) reported a pers. comm. comment of Zibrowius that Pomatoceros terraenovae was a synonym of Pomatoceros taeniatus. No details in support of this opinion were given. Day also reported that "Dew (1959, fig. 13B) has illustrated a form of P. taeniatus" but he does not make clear that Dew's record was of Pomatoceros terraenovae [details]
