Abstract: The genus Cochleariopsis Y.H. Zhang was described in 1985, with C. zhejiangensis Y. H. Zhang, the only member of the genus, as its type. However, this species had been published by O.E. Schulz earlier in 1923, named Cochlearia warburgii O.E. Schulz. Hence, this species is not new one, and the type of the ge-nus should be Cochleariopsis warburgii (O. E. Schulz)L. L. Lu .
