is a permanently invalid junior primary homonym of Plumularia sibogae Billard, 1911, a different species now
assigned to Antennella Allman, 1877 (ICZN, 1999, Art. 57.2). With no available and potentially valid synonyms in
existence for the rejected junior primary homonym Plumularia sibogae, Halopteris longibrachia is proposed
