Type species Lamarck (1818: 329) used the recombination Chloeia capillata for the single species he placed in new genus Chloeia. Thus the original combination of this name, Amphinome capillata Bruguière, 1789, is the type species of Chloeia by monotypy. Amphinome capillata and Aphrodita flava were included by Lamarck in the synonymy of Chloeia capillata. However, these three are the same taxon. The true situation is that Amphinome capillata is the objective junior synonym of Aphrodita flava Pallas. It was an invalid but available name created as an unnecessary replacement name for Aphrodita flava Pallas 1766 as a recombination in Amphinome. In Fauchald (1977 :102) Aphrodita flava is given as the type species of Chloeia, and in the Hartman catalogue the type species is given as Chloeia flava (Pallas). Again these are the same taxon as "Chloeia capillata". [details]
