Phyllopezus goyazensis Peters (syn. Cacciali, Lotzkat, Gamble & Köhler 2018) |
Remarks:
Previously included przewalskii.
Status of goyazensis is unresolved.
Regarded as a synonym of pollicaris by some authors (e.g., Müller & Brongersma 1933; Wermuth 1965), but as a separate species by others
(e.g., Fugler 1989; Langstroth 2005).
Gamble, Colli, Rodrigues, Werneck & Simons (2012) did not comment on goyazensis, apart from referring to the above synonymizations.
Cacciali, Lotzkat, Gamble & Köhler (2018) retained it as a synonym of pollicaris, pending further studies.
