Description

Genus: Cardiodectes Wilson C.B., 1917

Cardiodectes Wilson, 1917, p. 50; Yamaguti, 1963, p. 188; Pillai, 1985, p727.

Type species: Cardiodectes medusaeus (Wilson, 1908) accepted as Cardiodectes bellottii (Richiardi, 1882) (type by original designation). Wilson (1908) described Lernaeenicus medusaeus Wilson, 1908, and transferred Peroderma bellotti Richiardi, 1882 into the genus Lernaeenicus Lesueur, 1824. Later on, Wilson (1917) established the genus Cardiodectes Wilson, 1917 to transfer both Lernaeenicus medusaeus Wilson, 1908 and Lernaeenicus bellotti (Richiardi, 1882) and designated the former [= Cardiodectes medusaeus (Wilson, 1908)] as the type species. Cardiodectes medusaeus (Wilson, 1908) was later synonymized with Cardiodectes bellottii (Richiardi, 1882).
