Type designation Iredale (1917) introduced Callanaitis as a replacement name for Salacia Jukes-Browne, 1914 (non Lamouroux 1816; see Nomenclator Zoologicus for additional homonyms) and proposed Venus yatei Gray, 1835 as the type species. However, because Venus lamellata Lamarck 1818 had been validly fixed as the type species of Salacia Jukes-Browne 1914 by original designation, this latter species is automatically the type species of Callanaitis (ICZN Article 67.8).
