StatusValidillegitimate
CommentsNon (Ehrenberg) Kützing 1849. The epithet appears in Rabenhorst 1853, on p. 34 (under O. hiemale) with an unclear status (new species of Odonthidium or new subdivision of O. hiemale?). Nevertheless, the name Odontidium rotundatum is definitely validly published with the illustration and plate caption
