From editor or global species database
Taxonomic remark Stylactis hooperii Sigerfoos, 1899 resembles Stylactis arge Clarke, 1882 and Calder (1988) regarded the former as a junior synonym of Stylactis arge.
The two, however, differ by the substrate their type specimens were recorded from: Stylactis hooperii on gastropod shells (Ilyanassa obsoleta (Say, 1822)), Stylactis arge on seagrass. [details]
