Basionym: Parmelia pulvinata Fée, Essai Crypt. Exot. (Paris): 123, tab. XXXII, fig. 1 (1825) [1824].

Taxonomy: "The only difference between H. pulvinata and H. taylorensis is the upper surface of older specimens of the latter with occasional irregular white abraded areas. They are probably symptoms of altering according to Schumm (2008). If both species are identical, the binom Parmelia pulvinata Fée 1824 has priority against Parmelia taylorensis M. E. Mitsch. 1961." Pisut (2009: 181).
