New enough, long enough, meets core content policies, but doesn't the article say that a rename was only proposed in 2015, with no mention as to whether it was done or not? --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 13:20, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

The 2015 article by Dlussky et al contains the taxonomic renaming. It is official for the purpose of taxonomic works, its simply called a proposal in taxonomic parlance.--Kev min § 13:50, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for explaining. AGF offline and paywalled sources. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 14:02, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
