Duliticola hoiseni
Wong, 1996: 175, syn. n.
Material examined.
Holotype, male, Presqu'ile Malaise (MNHP).
Remark.
Wong (1996)
described and illustrated
Duliticola hoiseni
. During the recent search in the Paris Museum we found that
Pic (1942)
described the same species as
Falsocalochromus ruficollis
and placed in the relationships with
Calochromus
despite that fact that the species perfectly fits in his own concept of
Platerodrilus
. Therefore, we propose
Duliticola hoiseni
as a junior subjective synonym of
Platerodrilus ruficollis
.
