  • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Fleurocapsales"; "Phurocapsales"; "Plaurocapsales"; "Plcurocapsales"; "Plcurocopsales"; "Plenrocapsales"; "Pleumcapsales"; "Pleurocapxales"; "Pleurocaspales"; "Pleurotapsales"; "Pleuvocapsales"; "Pleuwcapsales"; "Plewocapsales"; "Plewrocapsales"; "Plttirocapsales".
  • ❗ Pleurocapsales is the correct name instead if this order is regarded as a separate order (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another order whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
