Genus Hyptiolaimus Cobb, 1930

The monospecific genus Hyptiolaimus was created by Cobb (1930) with the original description of H. cephalatus based on a single juvenile specimen in poor condition. Wieser (1953) suggested a synonymy between Hyptiolaimus and Parasaveljevia but he was uncertain. Later, Gerlach & Riemann (1974) considered H. cephalatus as a species inquirenda, therefore this is a genus inquirenda.
