From editor or global species database
Nomenclature Hartman (1961: 129) presents a misleading account of the name history, and indeed it is complicated. Bispira rugosa var monterea (Chamberlin, 1919) is a combination created by Monro (1933: 1076) by downranking the existing Distylia monterea Chamberlin to a variety of Bispira rugosa. Hartman (1959:543) referred Distylia monterea Chamberlin to Eudistylia polymorpha and (Hartman, 1961: 129) maintained the usage combination of this record as Bispira rugosa var monterea (Chamberlin) of Monro was a misindentification which she then renamed as new species Distylidia monroi Hartman, 1961. The holotype or syntypes of Distylidia monroi Hartman, 1961 would be Monro's (1933) specimens from Balboa and Coiba Island he identified as Bispira rugosa var monterea [details]
