Coordinator notes: This is now <i>Kocakina fidelis</i> (Grote, 1874), formerly in the genus <i>Himella</i> Grote, 1874, a junior homonym of <i>Himella</i> Dallas 1852, is transferred to <i>Kocakina</i> (Özdikmen & Seven, 2006) (replacement name), a genus which includes as a synonym <i>Orthimella</i> (Schmidt & Lafontaine, 2018) (unnecessary replacement name).
This name was synonymized with<i>Himella intractata</i> (Morrison, 1874) in Hodges et al. (1983) (Checklist) which regarded the publication year of <i>fidelis</i> to be 1875. The synonymy was reversed in Poole (1989) - Lafontaine & Schmidt (2010), ZooKeys, 40:154.
