Specimen The Leiden Museum incorporates a small collection of Lamarck specimens ('duplicates'), which were donated by the Paris Museum in 1815 as part compensation for lost Dutch natural history objects sequestered during the French occupation of Holland (1795-1813). Among these there is a specimen labeled Spongia calyciformis 'Europa', which may be part of the Lamarck collection. [details]
Taxonomy Although Lamarck (1814:432) refers to Esper's Spongia caliciformis (a junior synonym of Axinella infundibuliformis), he spelled the name with a 'y', reasons for which we keep the names separate, because Topsent (1932) assigned the specimen to Axinella arctica assuming probably that Lamarck's subsequent name was a homonym for a different species, reasons for Axinella arctica to become a valid replacement for it. After Lamarck, Lamouroux (1816) cited Lamarck's name as Spongia pocillum, which if it had been in use subsequently, would have been the first replacement name. However, snce it was ignored it meets the conditions for a nomen oblitum. [details]
