Nomenclature It is as yet unclear where the first use of Phloeodictyum was made. The legends of Figs 23 and 24 in Lévi & Vacelet (1958) bear the name combinations Phoeodictyum coriaceum (Topsent) and Phloeodictyum fistulosum (Bowerbank), but in the text these are given as Phloeodictyon coriaceum and Phloeodictyum fistulosum. This is here pronounced as 'original description' but it is not yet clear which author was the first to make this mistake. The Systema Porifera has no entry for this name in the index, but a mistaken use of the name Phloeodictyum appears at least in the legend to Fig. 1 of the chapter on Iotrochotidae (van Soest, 2002). Similarly, the name was used once in synonymy quotations (Oceanapia constructum (Rützler, 1965 as Phloeodictyum in the ERMS report (Costello et al. 2001), a clear mistake as Rützler used Phloeodictyum.
For a time the Greek suffix '-on' was treated as a nomen corrigendum and changed to the Latin '-um'; however, this practice was declared unlawful and abandoned in the beginning of the 20th century. [details]
