Remarks:
Some authors consider
H
.
floedae
as junior synonym of
H
.
breviplexus
(
Odening 1960
;
Kennedy 1981
); however, according to morphological and molecular data,
H
.
floedae
is a valid species (León- Règagnon &
Brooks 2003
). Voucher specimens from
L
.
catesbeianus
identified as
H
.
breviplexus
by
Snyder and Tkach (2001)
, as well as specimens deposited at the USNPC (84804), were re-assigned to
H
.
floedae
(
León-Règagnon & Brooks 2003
)
