Remarks:
Many species of
Haematoloechus
were synonymyzed with
H
.
varioplexus
by
Kennedy (1981)
. Based on morphological and molecular evidence,
León-Règagnon
et al
. (2005)
re-established the validity of these species and the close phylogenetic relationships of
H
.
varioplexus
with
H
.
parviplexus
and
H
.
colorandensis
.
