Taxonomic remark Listed as synonym of Stylonema in IRMNG, although AlgaeBase (2020) states that it is a synonym of Erythrotrichia. Index Nominum Genericorum states: "T.: G. ceramicola sensu Kützing. The material upon which the generic description was based was originally referred to Conferva ceramicola H. C. Lyngbye, a species now considered not to be congeneric with the original material. The original material has been referred to G. alsidii (G. Zanardini) M. A. Howe (B. alsidii G. Zanardini) (vide R. Ross, Taxon 14: 96. 1965).". Goniotrichum alsidii is listed in AlgaeBase as a synonym of Stylonema alsidii (Zanardini) K.M.Drew. AlgaeBase also maintains family Goniotrichaceae and order Goniotrichales as at 2020 (possibly for presently unallocated species of Goniotrichum), however Stylonema is in family Stylonemataceae, order Stylonematales which should thus be the correct placement for the type of Goniotrichum; if there are residual, unallocated species in that genus that belong elsewhere that does not affect the family and order synonymy stated here.
