03FA8781FF903970FE88F99EFBBEFDFE.taxon	discussion	REMARKS The name abyssicola proposed by Perrier (1885: 24) was changed in abyssalis by him in 1894 without explanation. The name abyssalis was then adopted by subsequent authors. It should be noted that Perrier still uses the name abyssicola in some tables in his 1894 work (see p. 30, 33 and 34). Some of the Talisman stations reported on museum labels differ from those in Perrier’s (1894) publication. This concerns either the locality or the number of individuals. To avoid confusion, note that Cribrella abyssicola Norman, 1869 is synonym of Henricia pertusa (O. F. Müller, 1776) according to Madsen (1987).	en	Jangoux, Michel (2022): The type specimens of extant asteroids (Echinodermata) in the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle of Paris.

Yet neither this publication nor any other Duchassaing’s publications include the description of a S. muelleri species which, consequently, should be considered a long-lasting nomen dubium.
