 CILEA Jacquelin du Val, 1857, p. 25. 



Genotype: Cilea silphoides (Linne) (Staphylinus). 

 Fixed by : Jacquelin du Val, 1857, p. 25, by virtual monotypy. 

 Later citations: C. silphoides (Linne), by Thomson, 1859, p. 46; by Black- 

 welder, 1943, p. 510 ; by Tottenham, 1949b, p. 381. 

 Discussion: Jacquelin du "Val included two species {silphoides and pictus), 

 but one (pictus) was included with some doubt ("je presume aussi d'aprfes 

 M. Fairmaire") and is therefore not available. The fact that the two are 

 now considered to be conspecific has no bearing on the original publication. 

 Synonyms : 



Leucopaeyphus Kraatz, 1857c, p. 393. [Isogenotypic] 

 ASTiCTUs Thomson, 1858, p. 36. [Isogenotypic] 

 Notes : The date of Kraatz is probably December 1857. Jacquelin du Val 

 claims that his 1857 work antedates that of Kraatz. This genus has been 

 called Leticoparyphus in recent years, because of the misunderstanding 

 of the dates.
