Ehrenberg (1854b) described only one species of Lophophaena : Lophophaena Galea Orci [sic]. Thus, it appears that “ orci ” is not a subspecies of Lophophaena galea ; rather, it is part of a compound name. Ehrenberg named the species after the ship that led to its discovery, the “Brig Delphin,” which roughly translates to “ Galea Orci ”. Because it was intended as a single species name rather than a subspecies, the name must be corrected to galeaorci according to ICZN Article 32.5.2.2. In 1862, Haeckel followed Ehrenberg’s original name, but put “ galea ” in lower case. Later, Haeckel (1887) dropped the “ orci ” from Ehrenberg’s species, referring to it simply as Lophophaena galea Ehrenberg , subgenus Lophophaenula . Haeckel (1887) considered Lophophaena galeaorci Ehrenberg, 1854b and Lophophaena apiculata Ehrenberg 1874 to be junior synonyms of Lophophaena galea Ehrenberg. However , he did not provide a justification for the name change or the synonymy, and not all subsequent authors have not adopted it. Petrushevskaya (1971) , also considered L. apiculata Ehrenberg, 1874 to be a junior synonym of L. galea orci [sic] Ehrenberg, 1854b . Here we follow the precedent of Haeckel (1887) and Petrushevskaya (1971) by adopting their synonymy, but we correct the species name to galeaorci .
