Taxonomic remark Doweld, 2014 proposed to reject this name as an earlier, unused synonym of Asterocalamites (nom. cons. prop.), however this proposal was rejected per Herendeen, 206, who stated: Stigmatocanna Göpp., [was] published in 1852 with one species, S. volkmanniana Göpp., based on fragmentarily preserved material. The species was later synonymized with Calamites radiatus Brongn. Evidently the name Stigmatocanna has not been used since the 19th century. If the statements in the proposal are correct then this name may need to be dealt with, but we are not aware of any taxonomic study that confirms the conclusion that Stigmatocanna volkmanniana and Calamites radiatus are taxonomic synonyms. In fact it has been suggested to us that Stigmatocanna volkmanniana may represent a distinct genus. [details]
