| Memo: | Hemming (1967) stated:- In the year following the establishment of this genus Wallengren again published Caprona as a new name (1858, öfvers. VetenskAkad. Förh., Stock. 15 : 82), on this occasion designating Caprona pillaana as the type-species ("species typica"). Later, Plötz (1879 Stett. ent. Ztg 40 : 179) sought to change the type-species of this genus to a nominal species which had not even described and named at the time when Wallengren published the name Caprona. The species in question was Caprona canopus Trimen, 1864 (Trans. ent. Soc. Lond. (3) 2 : 180), which later became the type-species of the monobasic genus Netrobalane Mabille, 1903. The higher classification used here follows Lamas (2008). |
