Sisyrnodytes sericeus: Oldroyd 1974: 72 View in CoL .

Oldroyd (1974) described this species on a single male holotype from South Africa labelled ‘Gamtoos Valley bush / Hankey area / 5. 12. 67 3324DA / B&P Stuckenberg’. I have studied this specimen, housed in NMSA, and can report that it was misplaced in Sisyrnodytes View in CoL and should be referred to Acnephalum View in CoL . While a revision of Acnephalum View in CoL is being undertaken, I use this opportunity to propose this new combination.
