Type species:
Aspergillum australe Chenu by subsequent designation (Stoliczka, 1871, Memoirs of the Geological Survey of India, 5. Cretaceous fauna of southern India, 3: xv). - Aquaria Perry, 1811 [Conchology: pl. 52].
Type species:
Aquaria radiata Perry, 1811 by subsequent designation (L.A. Smith, 1962, The Veliger, 4(4): 172). - Arytena Oken, 1815 [CHECK author of genus, Bouchet has Schweigger, 1820; Handbuch der Naturgeschichte der skelettlosen ungegliederten Thiere: 602; Attributed by Schweigger to Oken, who had established Arytaena (nomen nudum) [Oken, 1817, Isis, 8: 1173]. Arythaena [Deshayes, 1830, Encyclopédie méthodique. Histoire naturelle des vers, 2(1): 75] is an incorrect subsequent spelling, and was not used by Deshayes as the valid name of a taxon. Arytene [Gray, 1858, Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, 26: 313] is an incorrect subsequent spelling. Junior objective synonym of Aspergillum].
Type species:
Serpula penis Linnaeus, 1758 by monotypy. - Clepsydra Schumacher, 1817 [Essai d'un nouveau système des habitations des Vers testacés: 79, 261].
Type species:
Clepsydra javanica Schumacher, 1817 by monotypy. - Aspergillum Lamarck, 1818 [Histoire naturelle des animaux sans vertèbres, 5: 428; Aspergillum javanum is a substitute name for Serpula penis Linnaeus, 1758. Aspergo [Agassiz, 1846, Nomenclator Zoologicus. Mollusca: 9] was suggested to be a more correct spelling, but was not used as valid, and is not an available name. Arytena is a junior objective synonym. See also Adspergillum].
Type species:
Aspergillum javanum Lamarck, 1818 by subsequent designation (Children, 1822, Quarterly Journal of Science, Literature and the Arts, 14: 80).
