Taxonomy
Jadin et al. (2013) reassigned all species of Pseustes to the genera Phrynonax and Spilotes.[1][2]
Species
- Pseustes cinnamomeus (Wagler, 1824) = Phrynonax sexcarinatus (Wagler, 1824)
- Pseustes poecilonotus (Günther, 1858) = Phrynonax poecilonotus (Günther, 1858)
- Pseustes sexcarinatus (Wagler, 1824) = Phrynonax sexcarinatus (Wagler, 1824)
- Pseustes shropshirei (Barbour & Amaral, 1924) = Phrynonax shropshirei (Barbour & Amaral, 1924)
- Pseustes sulphureus (Wagler, 1824) = Spilotes sulphureus (Wagler, 1824)
gollark: Absolutely ages.
gollark: Yes, that was you viewing its view page.
gollark: Currently for your egg the target is at 0 views so it won't be in.
gollark: It'll vary as it grows older. I integrated that EATW formula thing so that if an egg gets 1.5x the optimal view/uv/click score it'll be removed.
gollark: Which is good, because I don't think I have the network bandwidth for that many.
