Taxonomic / nomenclatural notes:
• Type species of genus Lepadella Bory de St. Vincent, 1826 and of subgenus Eulepadella Hauer, 1926 (the latter is an invalid synonym of the former).
• Lepadella ovalis (Müller) after Chengalath et al. (1973) [Ref.10428].

• Polymorphic species with a number of sub- and infrasubspecific taxa of uncertain taxonomic status. Probably represents a complex of cryptic species with narrower geographic ranges and/or ecological tolerances.
