Validity Hyatt’s name is not an available name (as it is the fourth name, ICZN art. 45.5). Lendenfeld’s (1889) assignment to Hyattella sinuosa (Pallas, 1766) is judged to be unlikely, Van Soest (2024) proposed to assign this material from the Mexican Pacific provisionally to Hyattella aff. hancocki (Dickinson, 1945: 3), a Hyattella species from the Mexican Pacific.
