When validated in 1851, the species name is nomenclaturally superfluous since in the synonymy it included several previously validly published fossil-species: Asterophyllites radiatus Brongn. in Mém. Mus. Hist. Nat. 8(3): 235. 1 Jun 1822; Bechera dubia Sternb. in Vers. Fl. Vorwelt [1](4): 43, xxx. Sep 1825; Annularia floribunda Sternb. Vers. Fl. Vorwelt [1](4): xxxi. Sep 1825; Asterophyllites galioides Lindl. & Hutton, Foss. Fl. Gr. Brit. 1(3): [79]. 7 Jan 1832.
