The pilumnoid Hoploxanthus cultripes Alcock, 1898, is currently recognized as a valid species in the genus Parapanope De Man, 1895 (Galenidae). The species, however, has never been figured, and the solitary type specimen from Karachi has never been studied since the original description. A re-examination of the holotype male in the Zoological Survey of India shows that it is in fact a senior synonym of Dentoxanthus iranicus Stephensen, 1946, previously known from Iran, Pakistan and northwestern India. The subfamily Parapanopinae Števčić, 2005, is also synoynymized under Dentoxanthinae Števčić, 2005, with the latter having priority.
Le crabe Pilumnoidea Hoploxanthus cultripes Alcock, 1898, est couramment reconnu comme une espèce valide dans le genre Parapanope De Man, 1895 (Galenidae). Cette espèce, cependant, n’a jamais été figurée, et le spécimen-type unique de Karachi n’a jamais été étudié depuis sa description originale. Un ré-examen de l’holotype mâle lors du Zoological Survey of India montre qu’il s’agit en fait d’un synonyme senior de Dentoxanthus iranicus Stephensen, 1946, connu auparavant d’Iran, du Pakistan et du Nord-Ouest de l’Inde. La sous-famille Parapanopinae Števčić, 2005, est aussi mise en synonymie avec celle des Dentoxanthinae Števčić, 2005, cette dernière ayant priorité.
