Oersted [sic for Örsted] in 1843 gave a brief description of Dodecaceria concharum collected from the Kattegat. This was inadequate for identifying the species. Caullery and Mesnil in 1898 described three forms of Dodecaceria (A, B and C) but they were uncertain which form Oersted described. Dehorne in 1933 described D caulleryi (now D. fimbriata), which reproduce asexually, and Form B of Caullery and Mesnil. By default Form B became D. concharum the parthenogenetic species Form A of Caullery and Mesnil. Gibson and Heppell in 1995 in an attempt to consolidate these names deposited new types for the two species at the Cambers Street Museum in Edinburgh.
