Validity All generic names proposed by Oken (1815) in his Lehrbuch der Naturgeschichte vol. 3 are placed on the Official Index of Unavailable Names by ICZN Opinion 417 (1956). Tupha is one of these names.
The genus name is also used by Gray (1821) (pp. 355-357), who listed: Tupha oculata with forma elegans, T. stuposa with formae gracilis and damicornis, T.palmata, T. coalita, T. hispida with forma furcata, T. dichotoma, T. digitata, T. ramosa, T. conica, T. lobata, T. perlaevis, T. aurea, and T. rigida with forma minor. Gray cited many senior combinations (mostly of Spongia species) of Linnaeus, Ellis, Gmelin and Montagu for his Tupha species, so most of these can probably be recognized as currently accepted marine species or as synonyms thereof. We will not further list these in the WPD. [details]
