Removal of homonymy between Haliclona arctica (Fristedt, 1887), Haliclona (Gellius) varia sensu Lundbeck, 1909 and Haliclona (Gellius) arctica (Hentschel, 1916).
1. Reniera arctica Fristedt, 1887: 421 (type locality Norsko, Norway). Reniera Schmidt, 1862 was synonymised with Haliclona Grant, 1841 and used as a subgenus by Wiedenmayer (1977: 80), making it a senior secondary homonym of Gellius arcticus Hentschel, 1916 (= Haliclona (Gellius) arctica) (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 57.4). From Fristedt’s (1887: 421) brief description of the species it remains equivocal which of the subgenera of Haliclona it should be assigned to.
2. Gellius varius sensu Lundbeck, 1909: 433 (type locality Cape Tobin, East Greenland). The combination Halichondria varia Bowerbank, 1875 has also been reported as Gellius varius from the Arctic by Lundbeck (1909: 433). Koltun (1959: 214) thought it to be unlikely to be the same species as the tropical shallow-water type material and ‘illegally’ conferred authorship of the Arctic specimens to Lundbeck (1909: 433), which in fact created a junior homonym. Koltun (l.c.) also named Gellius arcticus Hentschel, 1916: 12 as a junior synonym of Gellius varius, providing the opportunity to remove the homonymy with Bowerbank’s species. However, Gellius arcticus Hentschel, 1916 is also a junior secondary homonym of Reniera arctica Fristedt, 1887: 421. The here proposed new name, Haliclona ernsti nom.nov. for Gellius arcticus Hentschel, 1916, as junior synonym of Gellius varius sensu Lundbeck, 1909 also removes the homonymy between Haliclona (Gellius) varia (Bowerbank, 1875) and Koltun’s (1959) Haliclona (Gellius) varia sensu Lundbeck, 1909.
3. Gellius arcticus Hentschel, 1916: 12 (type locality Svalbard, Barents Sea). Gellius Gray, 1867 was synonymised with Haliclona Grant, 1841 and used as a subgenus by de Weerdt (2002: 858), rendering G. arcticus Hentschel, 1916 a junior secondary homonym of H. arctica (Fristedt, 1887) and requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 59.1).
4. Summary: Haliclona arctica (Fristedt, 1887) is to be maintained as the senior secondary homonym of Gellius arcticus Hentschel, 1916 (ICZN Art. 57.3 & 57.4). Haliclona (Gellius) varia (sensu Lundbeck, 1909) is a junior secondary homonym. Likewise, Haliclona (Gellius) arcticus (Hentschel, 1916) is a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona arctica (Fristedt, 1887). In the absence of a junior synonym these require a new name, for which we propose Haliclona ernsti nom. nov., named after Ernst Hentschel (ICZN Art. 59.1 & 60.3). [details]
