In 1962, in republication of the original work of Kryshtofovich (1934), the validly published name Hicorius kamtschaticus Krysht. (in Trudy Dal'nevost. Geol.-Razved. Tresta 62: 18. 1934 as "Hicoria kamtschatica"), Carya kamtschatica was labelled as 'sp. nov.', but based on all syntypes of 1934 publication, which allows to accept it as a formal new combination based on 1934 validly published name, not a new species.
