The Commission has removed homonymy between the family-group name amphiporidae Rukhin, 1938 (Porifera, Stromatoporoidea, Amphiporida) and amphiporidae McIntosh, 1874 (Nemertea, Hoplonemertea) by emending the spelling of the stem of Amphipora Schultz, 1883 to Amphipora- to give amphiporaidae, while leaving the nemertean family-group name (based on Amphiporus Ehrenberg, 1831) unchanged.
