Remarks.

According to Jaeckel "eine Insel Trahyra [sic] zwar unbekannt sei, aber zwei Inseln mit dem Nahmen Trauhyra in Brasilien legen, beiden Flußinseln, und zwar eine im Fluß Japurá (Staat Amazonas) und die andere im Rio San Francisco (Staat Bahia)" ["Trahyra Island is unknown in Brazil, but there are two islands named Trauhyra, both river islands, one in Río Japurá (Edo. Amazonas) und the second one in Río San Francisco (Edo. Bahia)"]. Given the classification within Cyclodontina , which also occurs around Bahia, the latter locality may be more probable; this is also the interpration of Simone (2006). It may be noted that both the NGA and the Fuzzy gazetteers had no matches for “Trauhyra”. Furthermore, Jaeckel stated that his description was based upon "Holotypus und 9 Paratypoide"; only eight paratypes were found. The assignment of this taxon to Plagiodontes by Simone (2006) is erroneous; tentatively this taxon is retained in Cyclodontina .

Current systematic position.

Odontostomidae , Cyclodontina trahyrae (Jaeckel, 1950).
