Nomenclature The name is a manuscript name proposed by Burton in a manuscript on specimen from the Siboga Expedition. The manuscript was not published, but the name combination was included as authored by Hentschel, 1912 in the 2000 list of South China Sea sponges without indication that it was unpublished. Thus, it became a nomen nudum as no description or illustration was given. The authorship of Hentschel is a mistake. [details]
