This name is a junior primary homonym of Priapus albus Forsskål, 1775 AND Actinia alba Risso, 1826. Per Fautin 2016, with updates in brackets: "This species now in Sagartia [since moved to Cylista]. Because species put in other genera before 1900, case must be made to International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (International.Code of Zoological Nomenclature Article 23.9.5) and until a ruling is made, “prevailing usage of both names is to be maintained.”
