Taxon Notes:In September 2025 an attempt was made to work out what this species referred to. There is no voucher specimen listed in CAAB or Daley et al 1997 and there are no known voucher specimens in Australian collections with matching descriptors, so this will remain unresolved until further information surfaces. It does not appear to be Centroberyx druzhinini which was added to CAAB in Sep 2025.
