Tilloclytus Bates, 1885

Tilloclytus Bates, 1885: 303 .

Tilloclytus (Bipartitopennus) Özdikmen, 2025m: 3367 . Syn. nov.

Remarks. Özdikmen (2025m) divided Tilloclytus into two subgenera and reported: “In the first group [ Tilloclytus (Tilloclytus) Bates, 1885: 303], elytra designed with more than one transverse or obliquely transverse, complete or interrupted, light colored bands;” and “In the second group, elytra designed as distinctly divided into two parts with a light colored, complete or interrupted (in the suture), transverse band in basal half (before of the middle of elytra) or in the middle of elytra.”

The division proposed by Özdikmen (2025m) is based exclusively on specific features and lacks scientific foundation, particularly as morphological differences or similarities were entirely disregarded. Therefore, we are synonymizing Tilloclytus (Bipartitopennus) with Tilloclytus .
