Remarks.
The species is polytypic, but the number of valid subspecies is controversial, depending on the authors (
cf.
Beinhundner 2017b
and
Schoolmeesters 2019
). This subspecies sometimes is treated as a valid species (
Holm 1994
;
Krajcik 2008a
;
Mudge
et al.
2012
), or as a subspecies of
C
. (
P.
)
cinctuta
(Voet, 1779)
(
e.g.
Allard 1991
;
Camiade 2015
;
Beinhundner 2017b
). Ecological data (
e.g.
abundance, habitat preference) were provided for GHA by
Mudge
et al.
(2012)
and
Joly (2018)
.The larvae of
C
. (
Plaesiorrhinella
)
plana
(Wiedemann, 1821)
[sub
Plaesiorrhina recurva plana
] was described by
Donaldson (1987)
. Biological and ecological data were provided for this species by
Donaldson (1987)
, Donaldson & van Todner (1992) and
Holm & Marais (1992)
.
Malec & Šípek (2017)
included it in their group 2 of artificial breeding conditions.
