From editor or global species database
Additional information Kolesnikov (1980) referred to the original combination as "Cyrena menguinensis Grab.". That combination could not be found in the literature. Judging from the illustrations, he probably meant Mycetopus mengyinensis [sic] Grabau, 1923. [details]
