However, Théry (1934) published the name Eurynodes instead of Ohausia . This concept was accepted by Théry (1936), Obenberger (1937) and Blackwelder (1944b). Cobos (1979) elevated Eurynodes to genus rank, and all subsequent authors have followed this opinion. The type species for Eurynodes is Cylindromorphoides cristatus and not Brachys coelestis Kerremans, 1897, erroneously stated by Cobos (1979: 428) as already noted by Bellamy (2003: 94). Bellamy (2005) treated the gender of Eurynodes as masculine because of its ending with the suffix “odes” according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999, Article 30.1.4.4).</p><p>Currently known species of the genus Eurynodes are E. coelestis (Kerremans, 1897), E. cristatus (Théry, 1934), E. capillatus Migliore et al. 2020 and E. gemmatus Migliore et al. 2020, all of which are known to be distributed only in Brazil.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/721B8A34FFAAFFFDDFCC5149FEE4FC09	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Two years later Théry (1936) commented on the possibility that E. cristatus could be just a subspecies of E. coelestis or the male of it, but he did not synonymize E. cristatus with E. coelestis . Subsequent authors, e.g., Obenberger (1937) and Blackwelder (1944b), considered E. cristatus as a subspecies of E. coelestis . Without any explanation and nomenclatural qualifier, such as “syn. nov.”, E. cristatus was listed by Bellamy (2008) and Migliore et al. (2020) as a junior subjective synonym of E. coelestis .</p><p>Beside the known syntype stored in the collection of MNHN and stated to be the “ holotype ” by Migliore et al. (2020), a second syntype is present in the collection of SMTD (Fig. 1). This second syntype represents what Théry considered the primary name-bearing type of Eurynodes cristatus as mentioned in the original description where Théry indicates that one paratype is deposited in his collection (Théry, 1934). The inference of holotype for the MNHN specimen by Migliore et al. (2020) cannot be considered a valid lectotype designation as it occurred after the year 2000 (ICZN 1999: Article 74.6, 74.7). Therefore, I choose the syntype stored in SMTD as the lectotype by present designation. The second syntype deposited in MNHN automatically becomes a paralectotype (ICZN 1999: Article 74.1.3).</p><p>Significant morphological differences between the syntypes of E. cristatus and the holotype of E. coelestis, such as the different form of the posthumeral carina and differences in the ovipositor indicate that they are distinct species. Therefore, I propose that E. cristatus is a valid species and it is herein removed from synonymy with E. coelestis .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/721B8A34FFAAFFF8DFCC5460FF22FEE2	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This specimen was not included within the type series of E. cristatus but was found in the collection of SMTD as well. Contrary to the interpretation of Théry, it was found to be a female after dissecting its ovipositor (Fig. 2F). Morphological characteristics like the flattened posthumeral carina (Figs. 2B, 2D), slender habitus and the shiny blue color indicate that it belongs to Eurynodes coelestis (Kerremans, 1897) . A comparison with photographs of the holotype of E. coelestis, figured in Migliore et al. (2020), confirms this assessment.</p><p>Diagnosis</p><p>Significant morphological differences between E. cristatus and E. coelestis were already noted by Théry (1934, 1936) and Migliore et al. (2020). Females of both species can be separated by the strongly curved posthumeral elytral carina in E. cristatus (Figs. 1B, 1D) in comparison to the flat carina on the elytra of E. coelestis (Figs. 2B, 2D). The sternites of E. cristatus are somewhat wider than those of E. coelestis (Figs. 1C, 2C). The form of the ovipositor and size of the two styli are different (Figs. 1E, 2E). Males of both species are currently unknown.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/721B8A34FFAFFFF8DFCC5149FA81FA72	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
