Excerpt from Synopsis of the Rotatoria
As insufficiently described are listed species that can not be definitely placed on the information at present available; the majority of these are hopeless, but it is possible that some may still prove valid. While apparently very vague, a description may nevertheless contain some clue that will enable us to identify the species when it is found again. It would seem inadvisable, however, to revive Old and forgotten names unless there is some definite reason for doing so; while new names should not be given to old species, it is almost equally confusing to attach new animals to rejected names.
