Synonymy See Charbonnier's (1951) review of Lesson's species for synonymy with Actinopyga varians (as A. mauritiana), the validity of which is clearly evident in Lesson's description. However for over 100 years H. monacaria was misinterpreted by authors who used it to refer to H. hilla Lesson, 2830. [details]Synonymy See Cherbonnier 1951 [details]
Unreviewed
Synonymy Holothuria hilla Lesson, 1830 has been validated by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (1970) and takes the place of Psolus monacaria Lesson, 1830 (commonly used in the combination Holothuria monacaria), supressed. [details]
