Listed as available in Becnel et al., 2014, although appears to be a junior homonym of Toxospora Kudo, 1925, which is a superfluous replacement name for Toxonema Léger & Hesse, 1922 and a junior objective synonym of Toxoglugea Leger and Hesse, 1924. According to the latter authors, "the distinction between this genus and Toxoglugea is unclear".
