| Comments | Two species were originally included, Stigmaphora lanceolata and Stigmaphora rostrata, and no type was originally designated. According to Hanna (unpubl. ms.), Two species were included Stigmaphora lanceolata and Stigmaphora rostrata, no type designated. Hanna also wrote that the original spelling is Stigmophora, and that Karsten, 1907 (ref. 001024), p. 399, spelled the genus Stigmaphora by error. Not verified by us. RCM gives S. rostrata as the type. |
