Nomenclature The troubled early history of Myzostoma/Myzostomum is based on unavailable nomina nuda.

Hartman (1959, catalogue p.356) incorrectly adopted Myzostomum as the 'correct' genus spelling, and Leuckart, 1827 as the author and the publication date. She treated Myzostoma as a variant spelling. However, the combination Myzostomum parasiticum is mentioned only as a name in Leuckart 1827 and is a nomen nudum there. Hartman incorrectly has Myzostomum costatum Leuckart, 1827 as the type species, but separately lists M. costatum Leuckart, 1830. The name appears in Oken's Isis (1830:613), where Myzostoma is the spelling, abbreviated as 'Myz. costatum' (along with 'Myz. glabrum'), but it is another nomen nudum. [details]
