| Comments | Rattray 1890, p. 152 (600) (ref. 001485) listed this taxon as "C.? janus Cstr." with the mention that it probably belongs to Actinocyclus. Rattray’s comments did not constitute valid publication of a new combination under Actinocyclus. The new combination Actinocyclus janus is validly published by Peragallo 1897 | ||
