Nomenclatural note
Treated as "incertae sedis" by Athansiadis (2016: 554). - (07 February 2017) - M.D. Guiry
Taxonomic note
According to Cremades et al. (2011: 138), given its peculiar morphology, it is difficult to tell whether P. binderianum represents a distinct species or just an aberrant form of P. cartiligineum or P. lyngbyanum. Even if the latter situation were the case P. binderianum would not be the nomenclatural type of either. - (30 June 2011) - G.M. Guiry
