Dicranolaius Champion

Dicranolaius Champion, 1921b: 195 . Type species, here designated, Laius falcifer Champion, 1921b: 204 .

Remarks. Champion (1921b) included four species in the subgenus Dicranolaius ( L. falcifer Champion, 1921 b, L. tetrastictus Champion, 1921 a, L. flavonotatus Champion, 1921 b and L. erythrocephalus Champion 1921 b. Of these four L. falcifer appeared to be the best candidate to be designated as the type species of the genus. The other three have been thought to be unfit because: L. tetrastictus was originally based on female only, L. flavonotatus is a junior homonym (see below) and the holotype of L. erythrocephalus is a teneral specimen.
