Taxon classification Animalia Zoantharia Epizoanthidae

Epizoanthus Gray, 1867

Type species.

Epizoanthus papillosus Johnston, 1842.

Synonym.

Epizoanthus incrustatus (Dueben & Koren, 1847) (ICZN 1991: case 2750).

Remark.

Herein, we choose to use the ordinal name Zoantharia Gray, 1832 as in the World Register of Marine Species (Hoeksema and Reimer, 2015). Although Zoantharia Gray, 1832, has identical spelling with the supraordinal name Zoantharia de Blainville, 1830, the latter name has fallen from common use- Hexacorallia Haeckel, 1896, being favoured.
