Nomenclature This name, which has remained unnoticed since its original publication, is a senior synonym of Bathyarca Kobelt, 1891. There are two originally included species, A. pectunculoides Scacchi, 1835 and Arca frielei Friele, 1877, and selection of the former as type species makes Plesiarca an objective synonym. However, Bathyarca is in common usage and is elegible for being declared "nomen protectum" under provisions of ICZN Art. 23.9; therefore Bathyarca is still listed herein as the valid name. [details]
