Additional information C. hunteri was listed as synonym to C. virgatum by Zevina, 1982. Yet many studies after Zevina still considered these are two species (Liu and Ren; 2007). Chan and Chen (2022) used molecular approach and showed that C. hunteri and C. virgatum are separate species.Chan BKK, Chen Y-H. Distinguishing Long-Discussed Cryptic Species of the Epibiotic Goose-Neck Barnacle of the Genus Conchoderma (Thoracicalcarea: Lepadidae) with Integrative Taxonomy.
