Claim: Gennaria griffithii was attempted by Károly Soó von Bere to transfer to its own separate genus under the name “Dithrix decipiens,” but this was doubly invalid because the genus name “Dithrix” had not been validly published.
Evidence: In 1929, Károly Soó von Bere attempted to transfer the species to its own separate genus, under the name "Dithrix decipiens". This was doubly invalid, because the genus name "Dithrix" had not been validly published, and griffithii rather than "decipiens" was the published epithet for the species.
