Bacillosiphon J.J.Copeland, Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences 36: 66, 1936 (Cyanobacteria, Synechococcaceae ).

Synonyms: Bacularia Borzì, Nuova Notarisia 16: 21, 1905, Borziella Molinari & Guiry , Notulae Algarum 177: 2, 2021.

Type: Bacillosiphon induratus J.J.Copeland (monotypic genus at the time of publication).

Notes: In a previous instalment (Molinari & al. 2021), the authors failed to realise that the earliest legitimate name (Art. 11.3, Turland & al. 2018) for the listed species was Bacillosiphon , a heterotypic synonym of Bacularia and, by extension, of Borziella . The error was kindly notified to us by Dr Richard L. Moe whilst registering our nomenclatural novelties in Index Nominum Algarum.
