Abstract

The misclassification of the species Lagkouvardos . 2016 along with the heterotypic synonymy between and Adhikary . 2017 has long been recognized. However, no formal assignment of to its correct taxonomic position has been made accordingly and therefore the nomenclatural consequences have not been implemented. In the present study, the author first re-evaluates the taxonomic relationships of using genome-based approaches, confirming the need of reclassification to the genus and presenting evidence of the synonymy between and . Next, the author proposes a new name comb. nov. and, based on the priority of their specific epithets, treats as a later heterotypic synonym of .
