Removal of homonymy between Clathria (Microciona) atoxa (Topsent, 1928) and Clathria (Clathria) atoxa (Bergquist & Fromont, 1988).
1. Microciona gradalis var. atoxa Topsent, 1928: 299 (type locality off the Azores). Originally described as Microciona gradalis var. atoxa Topsent, 1928 it was transferred to Clathria as Clathria (Microciona) by Hooper (1996: 172, 221), and subsequently Clathria (Microciona) gradalis atoxa was elevated to full species as Clathria (Microciona) atoxa by Van Soest et al. (2013: 299). See also Microciona in Hooper (1996: 221). It is the senior secondary homonym of Clathria (Clathria) atoxa (Bergquist & Fromont, 1988) (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 57.4).
2. Dictyociona atoxa Bergquist & Fromont, 1988: 104 (type locality Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand). This species was originally described as Dictyociona atoxa Bergquist & Fromont in 1988, even though the genus Dictyociona Topsent, 1913 was already previously transferred to Clathria Schmidt, 1862 by Lévi (1960: 60). Dictyociona atoxa was still referred to by that name by Dawson (1993). This appears to be a junior homonym as Clathria atoxa was already used by Topsent (1928), and therefore this needed to be renamed (ICZN Art. 59.1).
3. Summary: Clathria (Microciona) atoxa (Topsent, 1928) is the senior secondary homonym of Clathria (Clathria) atoxa (Bergquist & Fromont, 1988) and the name is maintained (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 57.4). Clathria (Clathria) atoxa (Bergquist & Fromont, 1988) is a junior secondary homonym without known synonym and required a new name, for which Clathria (Clathria) bergquistae nom.nov. was proposed, named after Patricia Bergquist (ICZN 59.1 & 60.3). [details]
