Comment:
Some on-line authors place this genus in the family Trichoplacidae. We have been unable to locate the author of this family name and have therefore omitted it here, as it appears to be a nomen nudum
Comment:
Based on a subsequent publication, many authors regard 1896 as the date of original description
