Removal of homonymy between Haliclona reticulata (Von Lendenfeld, 1887) (as Euchalinopsis) and Haliclona reticulata (Von Lendenfeld, 1887) (as Euchalina).
1. Euchalinopsis reticulata Von Lendenfeld, 1887: 815 (type locality Port Jackson, Eastern Australia). This species was accepted as Haliclona reticulata (Von Lendenfeld, 1887) by Hooper & Wiedenmayer (1994: 118), because the type species of Euchalinopsis Von Lendenfeld, 1887: 815 was subsequently established by Burton (1934: 529) as Chalina oculata sensu Bowerbank, 1864: 208 (= Haliclona (Haliclona) oculata (Linnaeus, 1759), p. 1348, originally as Spongia), which is the type species of the genus Haliclona Grant, 1841. Von Lendenfeld’s species is not well known, but its assignment to Euchalinopsis supports the accepted combination. It has page priority over Euchalina reticulata (ICZN Art. Recommendation 69A.10).
2. Euchalina reticulata Von Lendenfeld, 1887: 817 (type locality Port Phillip Heads, Australia). This species was declared incertae sedis by Hooper & Wiedenmayer (1994: 121), but is here assigned to Haliclona on the basis of its description. The genus Euchalina Von Lendenfeld, 1887: 817 would be a Callyspongia Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864: 56 according to Hooper & Wiedenmayer (1994: 88), but the type species E. typica Von Lendenfeld, 1887: 817 is quite unlike Callyspongia, as it is described as extremely soft, more like Haliclona. The species is not well-known, but Haliclona is the most likely genus to receive Euchalina reticulata, and it is not reasonable to declare it unrecognizable as far as genus is concerned. The combination thus becomes a junior secondary homonym of Euchalinopsis reticulata, which needed a new name (ICZN Art. 60.3).
3. Summary: Haliclona reticulata (Von Lendenfeld, 1887) (as Euchalinopsis) is to be maintained as senior secondary homonym (ICZN Art. 57.3). Haliclona reticulata (Von Lendenfeld, 1887) (as Euchalina) is a junior secondary homonym, without an obvious synonym (ICZN Art. 60.3). Haliclona lendenfeldinom. nov. was proposed to remove the homonymy, named after Robert Von Lendenfeld. [details]
