Alonso-Zarazaga, Miguel A. & Lyal, Christopher H. C., 2009, A catalogue of family and genus group names in Scolytinae and Platypodinae with nomenclatural remarks (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) 2258, Zootaxa 2258, pp. 1-134 : 111

Zopheridae : Colydiinae : Fossils

Cryphalites Cockerell, 1917 -368 (+)

M; Cryphalites rugosissimus Cockerell, 1917 ; OD

Remarks: 1 sp. Wood and Bright (1992 -1082) tentatively assigned it to the Cryphalini . Originally the species name is written rugosissmus on p. 368 and rugosissimus on p. 366; we here select the latter as valid (First Reviser action, Art. 24.2). Type species designation given as monotypy in Wood and Bright (1992 -1082) in error. Ross & York (2000 -12) placed it in Colydiidae with doubt. The photograph of the holotype reveals that it is not a Scolytinae , so we agree for the moment with their placement, as Zopheridae Colydiinae .

Distribution: Miocene Burmese Amber

= Cryphalities: Wood, 1986-25 (+)

Remarks: Unavailable: incorrect subsequent spelling (Art. 33.3).
