Genus Ctenoplectrella Cockerell

Ctenoplectrella Cockerell, 1909a: 19 . Type species: Ctenoplectrella viridiceps Cockerell, 1909a , by monotypy. Cockerell, 1909b: 314; Zeuner & Manning, 1976: 172; Engel, 2001a: 68.

Palaeomacropis Michez & Nel in Michez et al., 2007: 703. Type species: Palaeomacropis eocenicus Michez & Nel in Michez et al., 2007, by original designation. New synonymy.

Engel (2001a) reported the original description of Ctenoplectrella as Cockerell (1909b), following the precedent established by Zeuner & Manning (1976). However, a recent examination of the dates of publication for Cockerell’s two papers in which Ctenoplectrella is described (Cockerell, 1909a, 1909b), reveals that the situation is actually reversed. Cockerell’s paper in Schriften der physikalisch-ökonomischen Gesellschaft zu Königsberg in Prussia (Cockerell, 1909a) appeared 20 September 1909, while the other paper did not appear until December 1909 (Cockerell, 1909b). Thus, Ctenoplectrella and C. viridiceps Cockerell date from 20 September of that year and not December.
