Extract
In 1838 Johnston in the first edition of his History of British Zoophytes instituted a genus Lepralia (the middle a should from its derivation be short) with seven type species—Cellepora hyalina Linn., Berenicea nitida Flem., Berenicea immersa Flem., Cellepora coccinea Abild., Eschara ciliata Pall., Discopora trispinosa Johnst., and Lepralia variolosa nov. The genus has had a very chequered career, as well as very heavy use.
