Name
Cryptops parisi Verhoeff, 1931 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Cryptops parisi genuinus var. rhenanus Verhoeff, 1931[1] Zool. Jb. (Syst.) 62: 274 (in key only).
- Cryptops parisi rhenanus : Verhoeff, 1934[2] Zool. Jb. (Syst.) 66: 48.
Remarks
Verhoeff (1931)[1] distinguished two varieties of what he termed Cryptops parisi genuinus namely var. parisi and var. rhenanus. His var. rhenanus would appear to be a trinomen and as such, being an infrasubspecific category, would be an unavailable name and is listed as such by Minelli (2006)[3]. I believe, however, that Verhoeff was using “genuinus” to indicate a typical Cryptops parisi differentiating it from his Cryptops parisi subsp. transsilvanius Verhoeff, 1931. Presumably using the term for taxa with more distinguishing features than his varieties. In a later paper (Verhoeff 1934[2]) he refers Cryptops parisi rhenanus i.e. to what would now be considered a subspecies.
Characterised mainly by the poison gland pore tube reaching almost to the base of the trochanteroprefemur as opposed to about the middle. Probably individual variation and regarded here as a junior subjective synonym of Cryptops parisi parisi. Locality not given but rhenanus means from the banks of the river Rhine.
