Nomenclature ICZN Opinion 1539 (Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature, 46(2): 140) has ruled that the name Conus floridanus Gabb, 1869, is not to be given precedence over Conus anabathrum Crosse, 1865, by those authors considering that the two names refer to the same species. However, it had not declared Conus floridanus invalid or unavailable, and it remained a potentially valid name. The revalidation of the species Conus floridanus by Berschauer (2022) was nomenclaturally perfectly permissible, but is not tenable now when Leal et al. (2024) show that anabathrum and floridanus refer to the same taxonomical species.. [details]
