Authority The speciesd was originally described as a forma of Craniella cranium, but a complication is that the forma was described after 1960, thus rendering it infrasubspecific (ICZN art. 15.2) and excluding it from regulating by the Code (ICZN art. 45.6.3). Van Soest (2024: 53) proposed to erect a new name, identical to the unavailable name to avoid unnecessary confusion, Ancorina nanosclera nom.nov. but with his authorship and date (in accordance with ICZN 45.5.1) and Lévi's type material as types.
