sirius ([[Ehrenberg, 1844a]] ex [[Schütt, 1891]], p.20) [[Lentin and Williams, 1973]], p.11.  Holotype: [[Ehrenberg, 1854]], pl.18, fig.59; [[Schütt, 1891]], fig.11.  Originally Actiniscus (name not validly published), subsequently [[Dictyocha sirius Appendix A|Dictyocha]] (name not validly published; Appendix A), thirdly [[Distephanus sirius Appendix A|Distephanus]] (name not validly published; Appendix A), fourthly [[Gymnaster sirius|Gymnaster]], fifthly (and now) Actiniscus.  In pre-1998 editions of this index, Actiniscus sirius was considered not validly published and attributed to [[Ehrenberg, 1854|Ehrenberg (1854]]), who apparently did not provide a description.  However, [[Schütt, 1891|Schütt (1891]], p.20) provided both a description and an illustration for [[Gymnaster sirius]].  In his synonymy list, Schütt indicated that the name Actiniscus sirius was first used by [[Ehrenberg, 1844a|Ehrenberg (1844a]], p.68), was subsequently illustrated by [[Ehrenberg, 1854|Ehrenberg (1854]], pl.18, fig.59) as [[Dictyocha sirius Appendix A|Dictyocha sirius]], and was cited by Haeckel (date not specified) as [[Distephanus sirius Appendix A|Distephanus sirius]].  Pending verification of these three earlier records, [[Williams et al., 1998|Williams et al. (1998]], p.27) considered [[Schütt, 1891|Schütt (1891]]) to be the validating author of this name.  [[Dumitrică, 1973|Dumitrică (1973]], p.822) considered [[Dictyocha pentasteria Appendix A|Dictyocha]] (now [[Actiniscus pentasterias|Actiniscus]]) [[Dictyocha pentasteria Appendix A|pentasterius]] to be the questionable taxonomic senior synonym of this species.  N.I.A.  Age: Miocene.
