Caproniella

I have a question about the name Caproniella Berl. All sources I know say that it was published in Icones Fungorum II: 62 but Caproniella is mentioned there only as a note under the description of Capronia (http://imgbase-scd-ulp.u-strasbg.fr/displayimage.php?album=376&pos=66). This can't be enough for introducing a new name officially, can it? Especially since the following two species aren't transferred to Caproniella (both Index Fungorum and MycoBank list "Caproniella pleiospora (Mouton) Berl., Icon. fung. (Abellini) 2: 62 (1896)" respectively "Caproniella pleiospora (Mouton) Berl. 1896, Icones Fungorum. Pyrenomycetes 2: 62" so, according to them, C. pleiospora should have been transferred to Caproniella on page 62, which I linked above).
To me it is unclear when and where the name Caproniella was published originally and when the species C. juniperi and C. pleiospora were transferred to Caproniella. It would be great if somebody could help me with this problem!
Best wishes,
Gernot

Re : Caproniella
Hi Gernot,
a clearer separation from Capronia you will find in the footnote on page 177 of the same work (16 spores...).

Re : Caproniella
thank you, Martin! I have seen this footnote too but then I wonder why Berlese lists C. juniperi and C. pleiospora in the genus Capronia on page 62 f. It makes it even more mysterious to me that according to Index Fungorum and MycoBank C. juniperi has already been transferred to Caproniella in 1876. However, there is no further literature given...

Re : Caproniella
Hi Guy,
merci! Also Martin pointed out page 177 but it remains unclear to me why the literature always referres to page 62. Wouldn't "Caproniella Berl., Icones Fungorum II: 177 (1900)" be correct then?
By the way, it's incorrect that C. juniperi was transferred to Caproniella already in 1876 (as given in Index Fungorum and MycoBank) since this species wasn't described until 1887.

Gernot

Re : Caproniella
By accident I just found something interesting concerning Caproniella, from L. Holm in Taxon 24(4):475-488 (1975). I attach it as a photo.
