Extract

O'Dogherty (1994) erected the genus Pogonias for a distinctive group of Cretaceous radiolarians characterized by a tetrahedral thoracic segment drawn out distally into divergent appendages and considered, from a stratigraphic point of view, as a useful marker for the Albian-Turonian interval. By chance, we have recently discovered that the name Pogonias has been preoccupied two times, first by a fish Pogonias La Cepède, 1801 (p. 137), and later by an aves Pogonias Illiger, 1811 (p. 202). Thus, in accordance with the requirements of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (1999, article 60), we proposed the name Pogonisella nomen novum as a replacement name for Pogonias O'Dogherty, 1994, not Pogonias La Cepède, 1801, not Pogonias Illiger, 1811. The type species of Pogonisella (feminine gender) is P. prodromus by original designation (O'Dogherty, 1994).
