Nomenclature The original reference in Leach (1817) only contains a reference to Sepia sepiola Linnaeus, 1758, which itself is based on a figure by Rondelet (1554: 519) and is an earlier available name and objective synonym. Hoyle (1886: 110) supported the view that the name rondeletii is widely used and disputed Tryon's (1879) attempt to restore the Linnean name. It does not seem that Sepia sepiola has ever been used as valid since then, therefore the conditions would be met to apply ICZN art. 23.9 and declare Sepia sepiola "nomen oblitum" and Sepiola rondeletii "nomen protectum", but this has not been done.
