Homonymy Flabelligera haswelli is a replacement name by Salazar-Vallejo (2012) for Siphonostoma affine Haswell, 1886, with Neotype (AM-8674), Halifax Park, Port Stephens (32°45′00" S, 151°49′59" E). This replacement is because Siphonostoma affine Haswell (later also used by Haswell under the misspelling Siphonostomum) is a primary junior homonym of Siphonostoma affine Leidy, 1855 and as such is permanently invalid. Salazar-Vallejo (2012) wished to recombine Haswell's species into Flabelligera, stating that the new combination F. affine (Haswell, 1886) becomes a junior, secondary homonym of a third species, F. affinis Sars, 1829, hence he created the replacement name Flabelligera haswelli. However, this is a misunderstanding of the situation. Salazar-Vallejo (2012) does not mention the primary homonym, Siphonostoma affine Leidy, 1855, which Haswell later realised predated his name. The replacement name must be created because the original name Siphonostoma affine Haswell is a primary junior homonym (whichever Siphonostoma -stomum spelling is used. The secondary homonymy once Haswell's species becomes a candidate Flabelligera is irrelevant to the situation. Haswell's name needed replacing whether it stayed in its original genus or was recombined to any other genus. It is the original species name duplication in Siphonostoma [or as the misspelling Siphonostomum] which was the problem needing correction [G. Read 2022]. [details]
