Suberites inconstans var. maeandrina Dendy, 1887: 155, pl. X fig. 1.

It is argued above that the present variety and the nominotypical variety S. inconstans var. inconstans ( = var. globosa) are merged to a single taxon as the differences between the two are negligible, and the locality of the two is the same (Rameswaram Island, Gulf of Mannar, approximate coordinates 13.08°N 80.3°E, lectotype BMNH 1887.8.4.1, one specimen (not type material) in the Madras Museum, now Government Museum, Chennai, cf. Vosmaer 1911: 19). The species is to be named Spheciospongia inconstans (Dendy, 1887) .
