Did you mean excluded above?

Per the docs:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/interactive/app-pgdump.html
--table=table
Note: The behavior of the -t switch is not entirely upward compatible
with pre-8.2 PostgreSQL versions. Formerly, writing -t tab would dump
all tables named tab, but now it just dumps whichever one is visible in
your default search path. To get the old behavior you can write -t
'*.tab'. Also, you must write something like -t sch.tab to select a
table in a particular schema, rather than the old locution of -n sch -t tab.
So have you tried schema qualifying the table name?
