  • Notes:
    • ⏰ According to Forti (1907), this species is an earlier heterotypic synonym of "Coleonema arenifera" Schousboe ex Bornet and Thuret 1880. Publication: Forti A. Myxophyceae. In: De Toni JB (eds), Sylloge algarum omnium hucusque cognitarum Vol. 5, Sumptibus auctoris, Padova, 1907, p. 1-761.
    • ❗ Dermocarpa schousboei is the correct name instead if this species is regarded as a separate species (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another species whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate genus Dermocarpa.
    • ✏ The authority of the taxon name (Bornet) deliberately differs from the author of the publication (Batters).
