name for the bisuturate specimens would have to be Diplochora Attems, 1903. 
The non-suturate specimens would take the nominate generic name. The 
explanation for this is complicated and beyond the scope of this paper; how- 
ever, it is fully treated in another paper being published in Entomological 
News. 
historically three contending generic names have been applied to this 
zoological entity. Some w r orkers continue to apply the wrong generic name. 
The only correct generic name is Strigamia ; it is neither Scolioplanes nor 
Linotaenia. The whole matter was thoroughly discussed and clarified by me 
in a 1953 publication: see Entomological News, 64(7), pp. 169-172.
