Nomenclature As Lumbriconereis is a mistaken junior spelling variant, not an intentional new genus, taxon authors' names should not be placed in parenthesis when switching ('recombining') to the correct 'Lumbrineris' spelling of Blainville. This is clearly stated in the Code article 51.3.1. "Parentheses are not used when the species-group name was originally combined with an incorrect spelling or an emendation of the generic name (this applies even though an unjustified emendation is an available name with its own authorship and date [Art. 33.2.3]). As the variant is associated with Grube, and has been so widely used as the 'correct' spelling for new taxa, he is given authorship here, although Lumbriconereis is not a distinct genus as such. However, under Code article 33.2.3 the name has its own date and author and is a junior objective synonym of Lumbrineris. Grube stated he was assigning his taxa to Lumbrineris Blainville, but for unknown reasons used an alternate 'improved' spelling. The variants Lumbrinereis and Lumbriconereis are spelling changes rather than different genera. This is already accepted practice for genus Lumbrineris; see for example Carrera-Parra (2001: 600, 2006). The Hartman catalogue (1959: 327) treated Lumbriconereis as a separate genus authored by Grube, although referred to Lumbrineris, but strictly this is not correct according to Grube himself, who willfully changed the spelling [details]

Fauvel (1923:429) also used it in the Faune de France monograph. Fauvel (1923) inexplicably records "Lumbrineris Aud.-Edw" as its synonym, although Audouin & Milne Edwards (1833) themselves had stated Lumbrineris was from Blainville. They wrote: "M. de Blainville a établi ce genre pour recevoir quelques Annélides qui, par la forme générale de leur corps, se rapprochent des Lysidices et des Lombrics." [details]
