Notes
Six new species were described (
Tautel 2016
).
Han and Xue (2011a)
created the new combination
Jodis omeiensis
, stating that this species was transferred from the genus
Gelasma
Warren, 1893; however,
Gelasma
had been designated a junior synonym of
Maxates
Moore, [1887] by
Holloway (1996)
. Despite this synonymy, the combination
Maxates omeiensis
(Chu, 1981) does not appear to have ever been published between 1996 and 2011.
Beljaev (2007)
elevated
Jodis putata orientalis
Wehrli, 1923 from subspecies to species and subsequently synonymised it with
J. angulata
.
