Abstract

We established a new species, Euplotes tuffraui , and described the morphology and phylogeny of this species ( Lian et al. 2021 ). Helmut Berger (Salzburg, Austria) informed us that Euplotes tuffraui Lian et al., 2021 is a junior primary homonym of E. tuffraui Berger, 1965 ( Berger, 2001 , Berger, 1965 ). Both species are valid. According to article 57.2 of the ICZN (1999), the junior name ( Euplotes tuffraui Lian et al., 2021 ) is permanently invalid and must be replaced. Our species is renamed Euplotes huizhouensis nom. nov.
