Homonymy Clymenea Muenster, 1830 is a fossil ammonite (Mollusca) which Muenster (1832, 1834) later misspelled as Clymenia, fide Neave, and this spelling may be in prevailing usage. Unresolved if Clymenia Örsted, 1844 must be a junior homonym. There is also a Clymenia Gray, 1864 in Cetacea. [details]Nomenclature Parapar (2003: 249) state that Clymenia Örsted, 1844 has been suppressed as a name [by the ICZN], but this overstates the situation. Clymenia was instead disregarded for supposed junior homonymy, and no action regarding it was taken by the ICZN Opinion. [details]
Synonymy The ICZN (1991) disregarded Clymenia Örsted, 1844 when considering the status of its competitor later names Myriochele and Psammocollus because Clymenia was then thought to be a junior homonym. However the senior Clymenia is a misspelling of the original name of Clymenea, so this treatment was possibly misguided. [details]
Synonymy In Nilsen & Holthe (1985) Clymenia is placed as a synonym of the junior name Myriochele [details]
