Removal of homonymy between Haliclona irregularis (Czerniavsky, 1880), Haliclona (Gellius) irregularis (Kieschnick, 1896), Haliclona irregularis (Kirkpatrick, 1900), and Haliclona (Gellius) irregularis (Brøndsted, 1924).
1. Cacochalina irregularis Czerniavsky, 1880: 232 (type locality Novorossiysk, Black Sea). Originally named Cacochalina irregularis Czerniavsky, 1880 the genus Cacochalina Schmidt, 1868 was determined to be potentially allocated to Callyspongia (cf. Desqueyroux-Faúndez & Valentine 2002: 837), with others including Cacochalina irregularis Czerniavsky, 1880 allocated to Haliclona (cf. Van Soest 2001: 82). Burton (1927: 290) suggested C. irregularis Czerniavsky, 1880 was a possible synonym (with question) of Chalina limbata Bowerbank, 1866, the latter being the type species of Acervochalina Ridley, 1884 and a junior synonym of Chalinula Schmidt, 1868, but Van Soest (2001: 82) includes the former in Haliclona. Haliclona irregularis (Czerniavsky, 1880) is the senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) irregularis (Kieschnick, 1896), Haliclona irregularis (Kirkpatrick, 1900), and Haliclona (Gellius) irregularis (Brøndsted, 1924) (ICZN Art. 57.3).
2. Gellius irregularis Kieschnick, 1896: 531 (type locality Ternate, Indonesia). Originally described as Gellius irregularis Kieschnick, 1896 there is no type material surviving, and Thiele (1903) doubts the identity of the species and suggests it is incertae sedis. Nevertheless, it was transferred to Haliclona Grant, 1841 and subgenus Gellius Gray, 1867 (De Weerdt 2002: 859), making it a senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) irregularis Brøndsted, 1924, and senior secondary homonym of Haliclona irregularis (Kieschnick, 1900), both junior homonyms of Haliclona irregularis (Czerniavsky, 1880), requiring new names (ICZN Art. 57.2, 57.3 & 59.1).
3. Stylotella irregularis Kirkpatrick, 1900: 137 (type locality Christmas Island, Northwest Australia). Originally named Stylotella irregularis Kirkpatrick, 1900 it was transferred to Axinosia Hallmann, 1914 (a synonym of Axinella Schmidt, 1862), and subsequently to Haliclona by Burton (1959: 219) without comment. The figure of spicules published by Kirkpatrick (1900: 136) shows clear small oxeas with stylote and strongylote modifications, typically as in Haliclona species. It is possibly a species of Neopetrosia or Petrosia as Kirkpatrick compares it with Petrosia (= Neopetrosia) contignata Thiele, 1899), but membership of Haliclona is more likely, and we follow here Burton’s (1959) suggestion. This is thus a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona irregularis (Czerniavsky, 1880) and Haliclona irregularis sensu Kieschnick, 1896, and a senior secondary homonym of Haliclona irregularis sensu Brøndsted, 1924, and required a new name (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 59.1).
4. Gellius irregularis Brøndsted, 1924: 127 (type locality Campbell Island, New Zealand) Originally allocated to Gellius irregularis Brøndsted, 1924 it was transferred to Sigmadocia by Bergquist & Warne (1980: 23) following the revision of De Laubenfels (1936: 69), which is a synonym of Haliclona (Gellius) (cf. De Weerdt 2002: 859). Brøndsted’s (1924: 127) species from New Zealand is different from that of Kieschnick (1896: 531) from Indonesia and Kirkpatrick (1900: 137) from Christmas Island, both of which are junior secondary homonyms of Haliclona irregularis (Czerniavsky, 1880), and both requiring new names (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 59.1).
5. Summary: Haliclona irregularis (Czerniavsky, 1880) is the senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) irregularis (Kieschnick, 1896), [details]
