GLYPTOMA Erichson— Continued 



Notes : This name was validated in a key in the first part of Erichson's work 

 in 1839, although the description and species followed in 1840. G. crassi- 

 corne was thus not originally included but was among the first group of 

 species to be included. 

 GLYPTOMERUS Muller, 1856, p. 308. 



Genotype: Glyptomcrus cavicola Miiller. 



Fixed by : Muller, 1856, p. 308, by monotypy. 



Later citations : G. cavicola Muller, by Blackwelder, 1939, p. 118. 



Synonyms : 



Typhlobium Kraatz lS56b, p. 625.

 welder (1939). 

 GLYPTOTYPHLUS (Holzel, 1944, p. 67, nomen nudum). 



Notes : This name was listed with one trivial name ( strtipianus, nomen 

 nudum) as a subgenus of Leptotyphlus. It was not validated by this 

 means. 

 GNATHOLIGOTA Sharp, 1908, p. 556. [Subgenus of OUgota.} 

 Genotype: GnathoUgota latifrons (Sharp) (Oligota). 

 Fixed by : Sharp, 1908, p. 556, by virtual monotypy. 

 Later citations: G. latifrons Sharp, by Fenyes, 1918, p. 23. 

 Discussion : Sharp included five species under this name but he stated that 

 \ie was doubtful if four of them had the character distinguishing the 

 subgenus. Only one species was therefore available as genotype, and the 

 name may be consider monobasic. 

 Synonyms : ( See OUgota ) .
