Synonymy The genus Schmidtia Balsamo-Crivelli, 1863: 8 was erected for type species Reniera dura Nardo, 1834: 715. Until now it is considered a junior synonym of Schmidtia† Von Volborth, 1869: 208 (Brachiopoda from the Lower Silurian), based on Vosmaer’s (1885: 338) assertion that Von Volborth described the genus in 1860, three years before Balsamo-Crivelli, who described his genus in 1863. Vosmaer (l.c.) erected Petrosia as a replacement name, with the same type species, Reniera dura. However, Van Soest, Hooper & Butler(2020) discovered that Von Volborth’s Schmidtia† was only described in 1869, not 1860, clearly after Balsamo-Crivelli’s Schmidtia. We have established that the junior genus name Petrosia nevertheless is eligible for conservation under ICZN Art. 23.9: the senior name Schmidtia Balsamo-Crivelli, 1863 has not been used for sponges after 1899 (ICZN Art. 23.9.1.1) and is thus a nomen oblitum, while the junior name Petrosia Vosmaer, 1885 has been used in more than 25 works by more than 10 authors in the immediately preceding 50 years encompassing a span of more than 10 years, and as such is a nomen protectum in the sense of ICZN Art. 23.9.1.2.
