GENUS Ectophylla
Author: | H. Allen, 1892. | Citation: | Proc. U.S. Natl. Mus., 15: 441. | Type Species: | Ectophylla alba H. Allen, 1892. | Comments: | Subtribe Ectophyllina. Some authors have treated Mesophylla as a junior synonym; see Goodwin and Greenhall (1962), Simmons and Voss (1998), and Wetterer et al. (2000). However, relationships of these taxa remain unclear (see Owen [1987] and Baker et al. [2000]), so Mesophylla is treated here as a distinct genus pending further study. |
