From editor or global species database
Spelling Hartman catalogue (1959:306) gives this misspelling a listing as Amphelothrix Chamberlin, 1919, and Fauchald (1977) lists the name as an invalid genus. However, it is just a lapsus in the indexing of the Chamberlin monograph, and not linked to a species name. [details]
