From editor or global species database
Authority Hartman catalogue records this entity as Malmgrenia curacaoensis Augener, 1927 (and WoRMS had followed Hartman's entry), but this is wrong. Augener (1927: 45) is undoubtedly recombining Horst's Paralepidonotus subspecies into Malmgrenia, and the author is Horst. [details]
