In 1929, Ryoichi Takahashi proposed ''Ferrisiana'' as a replacement name because he thought the existence of the mollusk genus ''Ferrissia'' meant ''Ferrisia'' was an invalid junior homonym. ''Ferrisiana'' was subsequently used by other authors to refer to this genus. In the 1960s, Harold and Emily R. Morrison and Howard L. McKenzie showed that the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature says the difference of one letter is enough to distinguish genera names, making ''Ferrisia'' the valid name (zoology), valid name for the genus. In 2012, M. B. Kaydan and P. J. Kullan circumscribed a new genus ''Pseudoferrisia'' for the species previously known as ''Ferrisia floridana''. Species , species ...
