REMARKS

Leptoconchus was introduced ( Rüppell 1834) without associated species. Leptoconchus striatus Rüppell, 1835 is the type species by subsequent monotypy ( ICZN 1999: Arts 67.2.2, 69.3). Massin (1982, 1983, 1990, 1992, 2000) studied the ecology and taxonomy of the species in this group. A revision of the Leptoconchus species is currently being undertaken by Dr Arjan Gittenberger at the Leiden Museum of Natural History (Naturalis).
