An alternative or variant taxonomic designation for organisms in the group containing graptolites; a fossil colonial organism.
Variant of graptolite using Latin '-itha' instead of English '-ite'. Represents different historical naming conventions in paleontology before standardization.
Paleontological terminology evolved as scientists debated what graptolites actually were—the different names reflect this uncertainty as scholars vacillated between calling them plants, animals, or something entirely unique.
