Note text

Fife (2017) was unable to resolve this name as type material was not available. It was placed in synonymy [with Eriopus cristatus] by Dixon (1927, pp. 285–286), who cited Brotherus (1901–1909) but failed to note the tentative nature of some of Brotherus’ comments concerning their [of this and other names] identity. It is unlikely that Dixon actually saw type material. It is better to consider this Eriopus helmsianus Müll.Hal. a nomina dubia.
