| Comments | Farr et al. 1979 give Achnantella Gaillon 1833 as a superfluous substitute name for Achnanthes Bory 1822. In Gaillon 1833, p. 34, the name Achnantella is introduced as Achnantella brevipes and Achnantella longipes as synonyms of Achnanthes brevipes and Achnanthes longipes respectively. There is no discussion or descriptions. Name is misspelled Achnanthella in SVL. |
