Remarks: Type species of the genus Glypthelmins sensu stricto ( Razo-Mendivil et al. 2006). Harwood (1932) described Glypthelmins subtropica Harwood, 1932 based on specimens from L. catesbeianus (USNPC: 30878); this name was used also by Parker (1941); however, in a recent phylogenetic analysis and revision of the genus, this species was considered synonym of G. quieta ( Razo-Mendivil et al. 2006; Razo- Mendivil & Pérez-Ponce de León 2008).
