Strophidon McClelland [J.] 1844:187, 203, 214 Masc. Lycodontis longicaudata McClelland 1844. Type by subsequent designation. Appeared in "Errata" (p. 202) as substitute for Lycodontis used earlier in article. Regarded as spelled in two ways (Art. 32.2.1); first reviser is Bleeker who mentioned both names and used Strophidon as valid; Lycodontis is thus regarded as an incorrect original spelling.
