Type species The type designation by Rosser et al. (2014), who selected Henneguya bulbosus Rosser, Griffin, Quiniou, Khoo & Pote, 2014, as the type species, is invalid. They should have selected one of the three species mentioned by Thelohan, 1892:
Henneguya brevis Thélohan, 1892
Henneguya media Thélohan, 1882
Henneguya psorospermica Thélohan, 1882
ICZN 69.1.1. In the absence of a prior type fixation for a nominal genus or subgenus, an author is deemed to have designated one of the originally included nominal species as type species, if he or she states (for whatever reason, right or wrong) that it is the type or type species, or uses an equivalent term, and if it is clear that that author accepts it as the type species.
