Removal of homonymy between Ascoleucetta ventricosa var. solida (Dendy, 1891) and Leucosolenia solida Brøndsted, 1931.
1 Leucosolenia ventricosa var. solida Dendy, 1891: 62 (type locality Port Phillip, Australia). This variety, currently accepted as Ascoleucetta ventricosa (Carter, 1886: 512), was largely ignored in the literature. Burton (1963: 230) assigned it to the synonymy of Leucosolenia ventricosa (Carter, 1886) (originally as Clathrina Gray, 1867) without any comment. Later authors treating ventricosa (Klautau & Valentine 2003: 3, as Leucascus Dendy, 1892; Cavalcanti & Klautau 2011: 258 as Leucascus; Cavalcanti et al. 2013: 303 as Ascoleucetta Dendy & Frederick, 1924) failed to mention the variety. Varieties erected before 1960 are available names (ICZN Art. 45.6.4), so Dendy’s var. solida enters in homonymy with Leucosolenia solida Brøndsted, 1931 as a senior primary homonym.
2. Leucosolenia solida Brøndsted, 1931: 17 (type locality Wilkes Land, Antarctica). The combination is currently accepted (cf. Burton 1963: 171), although no recent descriptions or records of the species have been published. There are no known senior or junior synonyms. The status as junior (primary) homonym demanded renaming (ICZN Art. 60.3).
3. Summary: Ascoleucetta ventricosa (Carter, 1886) as senior synonym of the senior primary homonym is to be maintained (ICZN Art. 57.2). Leucosolenia solida Brøndsted, 1931 is a junior primary homonym, and needed a new name (ICZN Art. 60.3) for which Leucosolenia brondstedi nom. nov. was proposed, named after Holger Valdemar Brøndsted.
