Gangriphycus Molinari, Mayta, Sánchez Ocharan & Guiry , nom. nov.

Replaced name: Embergerella Güvenç , Türkiye Jeoloji Kurumu Bülteni 15: 21, 1972 (Chlorophyta, Seletonellaceae ), non Embergerella Grambast (1969: 880) , ( Clavatoraceae ).

Type: Embergerella anatoliana Güvenç (monotypic genus at the time of publication).

Notes: Güvenç & al. (1995) proposed a new name for the genus, but did not cite the original place of publication, rendering their name invalid. Species of Gangriphycus have been found in Permian deposits from Turkey, Spain ( Cózar & Vachard, 2004) and France ( Vachard & al., 2016). The genus is renamed after the classic name of its type location, Gangra, later known as Germanicopolis by the Romans, and currently known as Çankırı, a name derived from the original Greek ( Giftopoulou, 2003).
