From Köhler & Bouchet, 2020: Solem (1979: 101, 103) considered Perochlora as a nomen nudum. However, the minimal description (‘subgranulose, clothed with a thin scabrous epidermis’) of Iredale (1939: 46) is technically sufficient to make the name available. Perochlora is a subjective junior synonym of Setobaudinia Iredale, 1933 (Köhler 2011: 312).
