Abstract: Examination of the type material of three Haplosomoides species described by
JIANG (1988) enables us to propose the following taxonomical changes:
Haplosomoides verticalis Jiang, 1988 = H. occipitalis Medvedev, 2000 (syn.
nov.); Hoplasoma minor Gressitt & Kimoto, 1963 = Haplosomoides biclavatus
Jiang, 1988 (syn. nov.); Haplosomoides nigricollis Jiang, 1988 = Hoplasoma
nigricollis (Jiang, 1988) (comb. nov.); Haplosomoides medvedevi nom nov., a new
name for Haplosomoides nigricollis Medvedev, 2000 (nec H. nigricollis Jiang,
1988). The spelling of Haplosomoides verticalis Jiang, 1988, is fixed.
