Cycloramphus carvalhoi Heyer, 1983

Cycloramphus carvalhoi Heyer, 1983: 297 , fig. 36.

Current name. Cycloramphus heyeri Segalla et al., 2021: 124 .

Holotype. MNRJ 33852 , adult male. Referred as “L 132” by Heyer (1983: 297).

Paratopotypes. “ L 133-34, adult males collected by Elio Gouvêa on 10 November 1959 at the type locality” ( Heyer 1983: 297). The specimen “L 133” was numbered as MNRJ 37366 , and the “L 134” is currently housed in the MZUSP.

Type locality. “ Brasil: Rio de Janeiro, Brejo da Lapa, Alto Itatiaia , 2.200 m. Collected by Bertha Lutz and Elio Gouvêa on 3 November 1951 ” ( Heyer 1983: 297) .

Here updated for Brejo da Lapa (22 o 21’28”S, 44 o 44’10”W; Datum WGS 84; 2,150 m a.s.l.), Parque Nacional do Itatiaia , Municipality of Itamonte, State of Minas Gerais, Brasil .

Remarks. The genus Zachaenus Cope, 1866 was synonymized with Cycloramphus Tschudi, 1838 by Dubois et al. (2021: 686). However, in proposing the synonymy, two valid species names were now secondary homonyms, viz., Cycloramphus carvalhoi ( Izecksohn, 1983 “1982”) and Cycloramphus carvalhoi Heyer, 1983 , as pointed out by Segalla et al. (2021: 124). Since Cycloramphus carvalhoi ( Izecksohn, 1983 “1982”) has priority as the senior homonym, the species described by Heyer (1983) required a nomen novum and the replacement name Cycloramphus heyeri nom. nov. was proposed ( Segalla et al., 2021: 124). The holotype and paratypes of Cycloramphus heyeri Segalla, Berneck, Canedo, Caramaschi, Cruz, Garcia, Grant, Haddad, Lourenço, Mângia, Mott, Nascimento, Toledo, Werneck & Langone, 2021 are the same designated by Heyer (1983: 297).
