Extra details from original publication
There is no evidence that Rhumbler changed his taxonomic concept of Hastigerina digitata between his 1901 paper and the mention of the same name in his 1911 publication. This. when viewed in light of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, dictates, as has been pointed out by Charmatz (1964. p. 496), that :
To validly represent the specimens so far identified by various authors either as "Hastigerinella digitata (Rhumbler)" or "Hastigerinella rhumbleri Galloway" in violation of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, the genus Hastigerinopsis is hereby proposed, and the type species is designated as Hastigerinopsis digitiformans Saito and Thompson. n. sp.
