Removal of homonymy between Haliclona foraminosa (Czerniavsky, 1880), Haliclona foraminosa (Thiele, 1905) and Haliclona foraminosa (Topsent, 1904).
1. Protoschmidtia foraminosa Czerniavsky, 1880: 98 (type locality Novorossiysk, Black Sea). Originally named Protoschmidtia foraminosa Czerniavsky, 1880, and although declared incertae sedis by De Weerdt on account of the mostly uninformative original description, she stated “This description is consistent with an assumed synonymy with Haliclona”. Several other authors (Ridley 1884; Thiele 1903; Burton 1928) employed Protoschmidtia mostly for species belonging to the order Haplosclerida. This is the senior homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) foraminosa (Topsent, 1904) and Haliclona foraminosa (Thiele, 1905) (ICZN Art. 57.3).
2. Reniera foraminosa Topsent, 1904: 245 (type locality Azores, North Atlantic). Originally described as Reniera foraminosa Topsent, 1904 the species was subsequently allocated to the genus Haliclona Grant, 1841 due to its synonymy with Reniera Schmidt, 1862 (De Weerdt 2002: 867), making it a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona foraminosa (Czerniavsky, 1880) requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 57.3).
3. Reniera foraminosa Thiele, 1905: 465 (type locality Tumbes, Chile) Originally described as Reniera foraminosa Thiele, 1905 the species was subsequently allocated to the genus Haliclona Grant, 1841 due to its synonymy with Reniera Schmidt, 1862, also noted by Burton (1938: 6) and Koltun (1964: 96), making it a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona foraminosa (Czerniavsky, 1880) (De Weerdt 2002: 873) requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 57.3).
4. Summary: Haliclona foraminosa (Czerniavsky, 1880) is the senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) foraminosa (Topsent, 1904) and Haliclona foraminosa (Thiele, 1905) and the name is maintained (ICZN Art. 57.3). Haliclona foraminosa (Topsent, 1904) is a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona foraminosa (Czerniavsky, 1880) in the absence of known synonyms requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 59.1 & 60.3), for which Haliclona (Gellius) emiletopsenti nom. nov. was proposed, named after Emile Topsent. Haliclona foraminosa (Thiele, 1905) is also a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona foraminosa (Czerniavsky, 1880) in the absence of known synonyms requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 59.1 & 60.3), for which Haliclona thieleinom. nov. was proposed, named after Johannes Thiele.
