Notiorhinus nom. nov.
Type species: Notorhinus floresi Moritz & Parra-Gómez, 2023 , now Notiorhinus floresi comb. nov..
Diagnosis: As originally proposed for Notorhinus Moritz & Parra-Gómez, 2023 ( Moritz & Parra-Gómez 2023: 568).
Etymology: The new genus name is derived from the Greek νότιος (nótios), meaning southern, and from the Greek ῥῑìς (rhîìs; genitive: ῥῑνός (rhînós)), meaning nose. The name refers to the distribution of the genus in South America, as the most southern Siphonorhinidae , and to its acuminate head shape. Rhinus is often part of taxonomic names in the group (e.g. Siphonorhinidae Cook, 1895 , Siphonorhinus Pocock, 1894 , Madagascarhinus Wesener, 2023 ). Masculine.
