Remark Studies by Tomes (1885, p. 551) revealed that the type species of Duncan's genus Turbinoseris closely corresponded to Leptophylla, the latter of which is seen as a junior synonym of Acrosmilia by this author. In addition, Tomes realized that the species name 'de-Fromenteli' had been in use and was, therefore, unavailable. For that reason, Tomes created the species name anglica (=Leptophyllia anglica). Later, Tomes (1899, p. 306) revised his decision in that he conlcuded that Duncan's taxon was synonymous with Leptophyllia clavata, the type species of Leptophylllia. [details]
