CommentSynonymy: Propus vermiformis COPE 1874 and C. abendrothi were considered synonyms of B. trisanale by Dixon 1973: 29. However, Dixon & Soini 1975 treated vermiformis as a subspecies of B. trisanale. Apparently vermiformis is only known from its type according to Dixon 1973, so it is likely to be a synonym of trisanale and may represent an aberrant form of it.

Distribution: see map in TEXEIRA et al. 2013: 412.

Type species: Ophiognomon trisanale COPE 1868: 100 is the type species of the genus Ophiognomon COPE 1868, now a synonym of Bachia (see Dixon 1973: 14). Chalcides (Hapalolepis) abendrothi PETERS 1871 is the type species of the subgenus Hapalolepis PETERS 1871: 399. Propus vermiformis COPE 1874: 70 is the type species of the genus Propus COPE 1874: 70 (preoccupied by Propus Oken 1816). 
EtymologyNamed after Latin tris, three + Latin analis, referred to the anus. (COPE 1868, Esteban Lavilla, pers. comm., April 2024)

B. t. abendrothi was named after Dr. Robert Abendroth who collected the types of this species.

B. t. vermiformis was named after Latin vermiformis, worm-like.
