Abstract
In the absence of type specimens, a lectotype of Antithamnion nipponicum is selected here from the original illustrations of the protologue. The lectotype is in agreement with the original description and shows characters that allow unequivocal identification with an undated Yamada specimen from a syntype locality. The latter specimen is selected here as epitype. It is concluded that Antithamnion nipponicum is a heterotypic synonym of Antithamnion pectinatum, and that the correct name of the species currently passing under the name A. nipponicum should be Antithamnion hubbsii.
