Recently, Santos-Silva et al. (2020) published a work regarding some genera of Acanthoderini , in which some mistakes were found; these are corrected below:
1. The genus Plagiosarus Bates, 1880 was listed three times as “ Plagiosaurus ”; one in the “key-words”; twice on page 31;
2. Acanthoderes pupillatus Bates, 1880 was erroneously listed under two new combinations: Aegomorphus pupillatus (Bates, 1880) and Scythropopsis pupillata (Bates, 1880) . According to Santos-Silva et al. (2020), Scythropopsis Thomson, 1864 is characterized by the eyes finely faceted, whereas Aegomorphus Haldeman, 1847 has the eyes coarsely faceted. As Acanthoderes pupillatus has the eyes finely faceted, it belongs to the genus Scythropopsis . To avoid future misinterpretation due to the error in Santos-Silva et al. (2020), we herein establish that the combination Scythropopsis pupillata has precedence over Aegomorphus pupillata .
3. Figures 19–22, Symperasmus alboniger , the specimen was reported to be a male. However, it is a female;
4. Figures 77–81, Aegomorphus ramirezi , the specimen was reported to be a male. However, it is a female;
5. Aegomorphus contaminatus (Thomson, 1965) , abstract and pages 18 and 35. The correct year is 1865.
