Authority This combination in Caulleriella was previously in WoRMS with the authority of Hartman, 1969, but this was a double error. As pointed out by Blake (1996: 292) Hartman in 1969 had referred to Moore's species but with the mistaken authorship usage of Caulleriella gracilis Hartman, 1961. Blake (1996) described Hartman's records (at the time identified by her with Moore's species) as a new taxon, Chaetozone hartmanae Blake. [details]Unreviewed
