 Fixed ty : Lucas, 1920, p. 200, by subsequent designation. 

 Later citations: E. crassitarsis Sharp, by Bierig, 1934b, p. 27. E. gracili- 

 cornis Sharp, by Blackwelder, 1989, p. 118. 

 EUSELERUS [Error for Euselerus]. 

 EUSIPALIA Sharp, 1908, p. 576. 



Genotype: Eusipalia hrachyptera Sharp. 

 Fixed hy : Sharp, 1908, p. 576, by monotypy. 

 Later citations : E. Jyrac'hyptera Sharp, by Fenyes, 1918, p. 22. 

 EUSPHALERUM Kraatz, 1858b, p. 1003. 



Genotype: Eusphaleriim triviale (Erichson) (AnthoHum) . 



Fixed iy : Blackwelder, here, by subsequent designation. 



Other citations: E. primulae (Stephens), by Tottenham, 1939a, p. 225; 1949b, 



p. 354 ; not originally included. 

 Discussion : In 1858 Redtenbacher stated that Kraatz based the genus upon 

 E. triviale Erichson ; since this is an error of fact, it cannot be accepted as 

 type designation. The designation of primulae by Tottenham could be 

 accepted only through the subjective synonymy of primulae and triviale. 

 Synonyms : 



Abinothum Tottenham, 1939a, p. 225. [Subgenus.] 

 Onibathum Tottenham, 1939a, p. 225. [Subgenus.] 

 Notes: This is the genus formerly known as Anthohium. The latter name 

 applies correctly to the genus known as Lathrimaeum. Of the three sub- 

 genera, Eusphalerum must be used for the genus because of its priority. 

 (See also discussion under Anthobium.)

 and Fairmaire, 1905. Synonym of Balda.]
