Taxonomy De Laubenfels (1936: 134), in a remarkably convoluted reasoning, erected this as a replacement name for Spongia cavernosa sensu Lamarck, 1814 (not S. cavernosa Pallas, 1766). At the same time he intended this as a replacement for Ciocalypta penicillus, which would be a junior synonym of Spongia cavernosa = Ciocalypta penicillus as redescribed by Topsent (1930). The obvious choice of a replacement name, if Ciocalypta penicillus and Spongia cavernosa sensu Lamarck were conspecific, would be Ciocalypta penicillus, as the first available juior synonym, and a new name C. alleni would have been totally unnecessary. However, Spongia cavernosa sensu Pallas is mentioned by Lamarck, which means the use of the name by Lamarck is a misapplication, not a homonym. We nevertheles retain here C. alleni as separate from C. penicillus (and other Ciocalypta species), as it is possible that Lamarck's material was not from the Caribbean, but from South Australia, from where many Lamarck specimens originated, and thus conspecificity is unlikely.
