Nomenclature Huber (2010: CDROM spreadsheet) credited the unpublished thesis by Stuardo (1968) for the replacement name. Huber formally stated "nom. nov. Lima (Limea) ceylanica Thiele, 1920 (Tanzania, Dar es Salaam) non A. Adams, 1864 (= Limatula)," which is here accepted as the introduction of the replacement name. Huber recognized Limea drivasi Kilburn,1990 as a synonym. [details]
