Remarks:
Gabb (1876b: 291) mentioned that
Athleta purpuriformis
(Forbes, 1846)
and
Athleta scrobiculata
Stoliczka, 1867
–1868 might belong to a new genus, and Gabb informally suggested that it could possibly be named
Ptychoris
. Wenz (1943: 1322) erroneously reported that Gabb had officially named this genus, but Gabb did not describe it nor did he designate a
type
species.
