Remarks: As a consequence of the new combination here established, the New Zealand species Chrysotus vicinus PARENT,1933 becomes a junior secondary homonym of C. vicinus (BECKER) . As such, the replacement name C. kallweiti CAPELLARI & AMORIM , nom. n. is proposed for PARENT’s species. The species is named after Dr. UWE KALLWEIT, who supported the first author during a visit to the SNSD.
