The orthography of this subtribal name is unusual. "Ichnestomina" is derived from an incorrect stem formation, whereas Ichnestomatina is grammatically correct. However, Perissinotto (2022b) showed that the wrongly formed name has predominantly been in use in the literature of the previous 100 years, whereas the grammatically correct form had been used only in two publications and one thesis.

Perissinotto (2022b: 280) hence appealed to the 'prevailing usage' clause of the ICZN [Article 29.5: Maintenance of current spellings] to preserve the name Ichnestomina against the more technically correct but virtually ignored “Ichnestomatina."
