Redescription
Scientific Name Notes Euzet (1994) considered this genus to lack a type species and thus as a nomen nudum. But, it could be argued its type species is C. typicus Diesing, 1863. Nonetheless, it is considered a Nomen dubium because the description appears to have included several different taxa.
