Taxonomy While L. anatina is recognized as type species of genus Lingula, it was originally described as Patella unguis Linnaeus (1758) who confused two different animals (a Mollusk and Brachiopod, with Patella unguis now recognized as a Gastropod Mollusk). Lamy & Andre (1941) and Rowell (1964) point out this issue an conclude that Lingula anatina is to be used instead of L. unguis. [details]
