Editor's comment The 'brevibranchiatum' spelling is not incorrect, viewed strictly, as Ehlers used it in 1874, but he did not use it in 1875, and if authors were citing the date of the species as 1875 they were not correct to use that spelling. See also comments under the original 1874 name and under the current name (Rhamphobrachium (Spinigerium) brevibrachiatum [details]
