Stephanoda iheringi Ancey, 1899[2] | |
This species was discovered and described by César Marie Félix Ancey as Stephanoda iheringi in 1899.[2]
Fonseca and Thomé (1995)[3] recombined it to Radiodiscus iheringi (Ancey, 1899)[3] while they accidentally synonymized it with a newly created name Radiodiscus bolachaensis.[3]
Saldago and Coelho (2003)[4] clarified the situation: Endodonta iheringi Thiele, 1927 is a synonym for Radiodiscus bolachaensis Fonseca & Thomé, 1995.[4]
