Nomenclatural notes
Seemingly originally first introduced without a description, but validated by analytical figures (ICN Art. 38.7 "For the purpose of Art. 38.5, prior to 1 January 1908, an illustration with analysis (see Art. 38.9 and 38.10) is acceptable in place of a written description or diagnosis."). Also illustrated in Schmitz (1897: pl. 212, fig. 1). - (15 August 2019) - M.D. Guiry
Invalid: seemingly not accepted by the author: "vide Cal. bicuneata". Name accepted by Foged (1986: 12) who cited the basionym but included a valid name, Caloneis liber, in synonymy. - (15 August 2019) - M.D. Guiry
