Taxonomic remark "If the Bursarius cytherae of Lesson (1830, p. 108, Pl. 14, Fig. 1) was,
in fact, congeneric with the form later named Tamoya by F. Millier (1858),
as Haeckel (1880) suggested, it would be necessary to substitute Bursarius
as the generic name. However, as Haeckel pointed out, Lesson's account and
illustration differ from all known carybdeids in showing only 2 tentacles
(though 4 pedalia); nor do they give any indication as to the structural
characters which determine generic position in this group. It is thus wisest
to abandon the name Bursarius for good and all, on the ground that the type
species of the genus is and must always remain unrecognizable. For this
same reason the specific name bursaria, substituted by Haeckel (1880) for
Lesson's B. cytherae, is likewise best regarded as a nomen nudem." [details]
