Unverified
Taxonomic remark pro -tillum Verrill 1885 (Nomen. Zool.). Verrill spelled this genus both "Benthoptillum" (Amer. J. Sci., (3) 29: 149) and "Benthoptilum" (Rep. U.S. Comm. Fish., 11, 1883, 510, 432). Neave treats "Benthoptilum" as an error for "Benthoptillum" but most recent sources treat "Benthoptilum" as the correct spelling, making the instance in Rep. U.S. Comm. Fish., 11, 1883 a later usage.
