From editor or global species database
Synonymy Hartman catalogue (1959:137) suggested this species was the same as Pherecardia striata, and this was the synonymy used by Day (1967:131). Pherecardia striata is widely used, but the P. lobata synonymy to it appears not to have been scrutinised rigorously. [details]
