Parabrachidontes, new genus, and P. amnicus Tan et al., 2023 (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Mytilidae) were earlier described in the Supporting Information section of a paper published in the journal Zoologica Scripta. The description of the genus cannot be regarded as available for nomenclatural purposes, because it did not appear in the main text of the article, and therefore is not considered as published in the sense of ICZN Article 8. As such, a formal description is provided for the genus, and redescriptions of the type species P. leucostictus (von Martens, 1897) and P. amnicus, briefly described in that paper, are also presented. © National University of Singapore.
