 Notes : In 1916 in the Coleopterorum Catalogus, Bernhauer and Schubert 

 cited the spelling Hypocyptus as Mannerheim, page 11, and the spelling 

 Hypocyphtus as Mannerheim, page 58. Actually, on both these pages, as 

 well as on page 18, the name is spelled Hypocyphtus. This is true both in 

 the separate work and in the journal (pp. 425, 432, and 472).
