Taxonomy Comments

Wood (2007: 571) removed Neodryocoetes caribaeus Blackman from synonymy with hymeneae Eggers, based only on specimens from Trinidad and French Guiana. Caution should be taken with published records of 'hymeneae' until the specimens involved have been reviewed which may belong to either species based on Wood's concept.
