Name change: In the paper by Oskars et al, 2019 (A molecular phylogeny of the gastropod family Haminoeidae sensu lato (Heterobranchia: Cephalaspidea): a generic revision), they assert: “As addressed above in the Remarks section of Haminoea, the genus Haloa is here reinstated for the IWP and Australasian species traditionally included in the former genus.”

We therefore have renamed our Haminoea species to Haloa.
