  • Beschreibung: <p>After examining the type species of Cryptocanthon, C. paradoxus Balthasar, and other species in Cryptocanthon, we have concluded that C. borgmeieri Vulcano, Pereira and Martinez should be removed from the genus and placed in a new genus as a sister taxon. Therefore, a monotypic new genus, Paracryptocanthon, is described here for the species C. borgmeieri.</p>
