paleonet query about trilobite name



I recently received this question. Does anyone know the answer?

We also have a couple of trilobites cataloged as Acaste birminghamensis.
However, my understanding is that the genus name was changed to
Llandovacaste, but I don't know the reference.  Is 'Llandovacaste'  correct?

Thanks,
David
