Treatment

Original source. Müller & Troschel (1844): page 180.

Nomenclatural status. Unavailable name; see remark (1) below.

Type species. Not applicable.

Remarks. (1) The name is permanently unavailable due to junior primary homonymy with Echinites Gesner, 1758 (p. 35: Echinoidea) and with Echinites Leske, 1778 (p. xviii (18) and 157: Echinoidea).

(2) The incorrect subsequent spelling “ Echinetes ” by Ludwig & Hamann (1899: 710) does not constitute a separately available name (ICZN 1999: Art. 33.3).
