 Fixed by : Fenyes, 1918, p. 23, by subsequent designation. 

 Discussion: This genus was proposed provisionally with two species in- 

 cluded by name. The wording is somewhat ambiguous, but it would be 

 difficult to maintain that the genus was monobasic.

Neoleptoglossa Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz, 1926, p. 683. [New name.]

 Notes: The 1915 paper of Eichelbaum has been generally unnoticed. His 

 new name was not known to Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz, but it makes 

 their new name unnecessary.
