Redescription
Scientific Name Notes The name "T. marnrle" is included in a list of Tetragonocephalum species by Lanka et al. (2013), who erroneously attribute the name to Shipley and Hornell (1906). Alternative citation was given and the original description (if one exists) could not be located. For nomenclatural purposes, the name does not appear to have been published and is thus a nomen nudum (i.e, unavailable).
