Comment | Synonymy: 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). |
