Validity The name Patula solarioides was introduced for a specimen from Steinheim on plate 28 of Sandberger’s monograph, which was issued in 1872. The corresponding text passages was published in 1875, when Sandberger revised his earlier opinion and considered P. solarioides as a juvenile form and junior synonym of P. euglyphoides Sandberger, 1872. Gottschick (1911) reinstated the separation between both taxa, referred to the text passages in Sandberger (1875) and even stated that Sandberger had originally introduced solarioides for the Steinheim species but had the name retracted later. Nonetheless, Gottschick (1911) introduced another name, Patula (Charopa) costata, for the Steinheim material. Regardless of Sandberger’s opinion in 1875, the name solarioides is available from its original publication, which makes costata a junior objective synonym of solarioides. This issue has been overlooked by later workers; the name solarioides does not appear in Wenz’ Fossilium Catalogus (1923). [details]
