Nomenclature We cite here Van Soest et al.'s (2020: 29) explanation for the nomen novum.
Removal of homonymy between Haliclona fragilis (Vacelet, Vasseur & Lévi, 1976), Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980 and Haliclona (Gellius) fragilis (Bergquist & Warne, 1980).
1. Adocia fragilis Vacelet, Vasseur & Lévi, 1976: 81 (type locality Tuléar, Madagascar). Originally named Adocia fragilis Vacelet et al., 1976 it was transferred to the genus Haliclona by De Weerdt (1986, 2002) (as a member of the ‘oculata’ group of Haliclona), with Adocia Gray, 1867 synonymised with Haliclona Grant, 1841 (De Weerdt 2002: 863), making it a senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) fragilis (Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15) and of Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 23) (ICZN Art. 57.3).
2. Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15 (type locality West coast, New Zealand). Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15 is a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona fragilis (Vacelet et al., 1976) based on publication date priority, and a senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) fragilis (Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 23) based on page priority (ICZN Rec. 69A-10) requiring a new name.
3. Sigmadocia fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 23 (type locality Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand). Originally described as Sigmadocia fragilis Berguist & Warne, 1980: 23, it was transferred to Haliclona by De Weerdt (2002: 859) on account of the synonymy between Sigmadocia de Laubenfels, 1936 and Haliclona Grant, 1841, with many species assigned to the subgenus Gellius Gray, 1867. The species is a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona fragilis (Vacelet et al., 1976) (ICZN Art. 59.1), and it is also a junior homonym of Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15 based on page priority (ICZN Rec. 69A-10) requiring a new name.
4. Summary: Haliclona fragilis (Vacelet, Vasseur & Lévi, 1976) is the senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15 and of Haliclona fragilis (Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 23), and the name is maintained (ICZN Art. 57.3). Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15 is a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona fragilis (Vacelet et al., 1976), and a senior secondary homonym of Haliclona (Gellius) fragilis (Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 23), in the absence of synonyms requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 59.1 & 60.3), for which Haliclona bergquistae nom. nov. was proposed, named after Patricia Bergquist. Haliclona (Gellius) fragilis (Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 23) is a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona fragilis (Vacelet et al., 1976), and it is also a junior secondary homonym of Haliclona fragilis Bergquist & Warne, 1980: 15
based on page priority, in the absence of synonyms requiring a new name (ICZN Art. 59.1, 60.3 & Rec.69A-10), for which Haliclona (Gellius) patbergquistae nom. nov. was proposed, named after Patricia Bergquist. [details]
