Nomenclature The name Leptothyra is generally attributed to Pease (1869), and the name "Leptothyra Pease, 1869" is usually treated as a valid name for small colloniines. Although Leptothyra J. G. Cooper, 1867 is a junior objective synonym of Homalopoma, the species usually treated as valid in that genus are provisionally listed in WoRMS under "Leptothyra sensu Pease, 1869", pending a taxonomic/nomenclatural reappraisal. Poppe et al. (2023: 166) regard it as Homalopoma, but in fact the Pease species costata belongs to Collonista. [details]
