Rectification of nomenclatural issues in papers on Paleozoic tabulate corals published in the Bulletin of the National Museum of Nature and Science, Series C, between 2018 and 2022: Part 3, Niko and Badpa (2020, 2021)

Abstract

Niko and Badpa (2020, 2021) that proposed a new genus and four species of tabulate corals were issued electronically without satisfying the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, thus descriptions of nominal taxa, Michelinia flugeli Niko and Badpa, sp. nov., Syringopora iranica Niko and Badpa, sp. nov., Sutherlandia khachikensis Niko and Badpa, sp. nov., Julfamichelinia Niko and Badpa, gen. nov., are given herein. A new combination name, Julfamichelinia allata (Tchudinova in Ruzhentsev and Sarycheva, 1965), is produced as the type species of the new genus Julfamichelinia.
