IUCN (2010) and FishBase both list this species as Synodontis vermiculatus. FishBase, in particular, lists S. vermiculata as a synonym and marks it as a "misspelling of the species' name that must not be used": Synonyms of Synodontis vermiculatus Daget, 1954
FishBase itself uses Catalog of Fishes as its main source regarding nomenclature. This is the relevant entry there: Current status: Valid as Synodontis vermiculatus Daget, 1954 (updated 19 May 2014) XenoVon (talk) 10:05, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
