| Comments | Type by original designation. Comments: First account of this name in Cleve 1892 (ref. 001970), p. 78, for a subgenus of Scoliopleura, as : "Scoliopleura (Scoliotropis) latestriata var. amphora n. var." Later, Cleve 1894, p. 72 (ref. 0003232), formally described the group as a new genus and included S. latestriata and S. gilliesii. Cleve 1894, p. 72, wrote: "this genus has been formed for S. latestriata....later on, an other ...was discovered, S. gillesii". We believe that this statement constitutes designation of the holotype. |
