Taxonomic remark Substitute name for Ephippium Vekshina 1959, non Blume 1825. (Index Nominum Genericorum). n.n. pro Ephippium Vekshina 1959 (Nomen. Zool.). From Nannotax3: replacement name proposed for Ephippium, but as noted the type species is unrecognisable and Staurolithites has priority according to Perch-Nielsen 1985. Most authors have followed Perch-Nielsen (1985, p.351) in using Staurolithites since it has priority over Vekshinella and Vagalapilla, whislt Ephippium is invalid. However de Kaenel & Bergen (1996) and more recently de Kaenel et al. (2020) have argued that because thetype species of Staurolithites, S. laffittei, is poorly described the genus should be ignored. However, the species is now in fairly common use, following the usage of Burnett (1998). Given this S. laffittei cannot be ignored and needs to be included in the generic concept, hence the correct name is Staurolithites. [details]
