Spelling In the original description, Burton misspelled the genus name Hemiasterella as Hemiastrella. It is an incorrect subsequent spelling and is not available. The corrected genus name is a justified emendation and the combination Hemiasterella digitata retains the authorship and date of the incorrectly spelled combination (ICZN art. 33.2). [details]
