Nomenclature Moser's account on the siphonophores of the German South-Polar Expedition, in which she formally introduced the new species...
Nomenclature Moser's account on the siphonophores of the German South-Polar Expedition, in which she formally introduced the new species name Hippopodius serratus, was submitted likely already in 1914, but its publication was delayed until 1925 due to World War I.
Unfortunately, Moser already used the name in two papers published in 1915. In her publication of 1915a she refers to her material of the German South-Polar Expedition, but also concludes that the species had been misidentified by Bigelow (1913) as Vogtia pentacantha. However, she does not explicitely state that her Hippopodius serratus is a new name for Bigelow's misidentified material.
It is thus unclear if Moser (1915a) made the name available or if it should be considered a nomen nudum.
For the time being, it seems preferable to use Moser’s 1925 monograph as original publication date of the name as it was intended to be so by the author.
This agrees also with the usage in Totton (1965). [details]
