  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Homoeothrix (Thuret ex Bornet and Flahault 1887) Kirchner 1898. Publication: Mabille J. Homoeothrix Bornetii (Sauvageau) nov. comb. - Tapinothrix Bornetii (Sauv.). Revue Algologique, Nouvelle Série 1954; 1:1-13.
  • ❗ Tapinothrix is the correct name instead if this genus is regarded as a separate genus (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another genus whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
  • 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: BRY: 2; CCALA: 1; ANSP: 1; UTEX: 1.
  • 🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "TPTX" for this genus name but this does not appear to be of practical relevance any longer. Publication: Pittman KF, Walczak CA, Lock CM.
