Validity Not available (nomen nudum) from Münster (1831, Zeitung für Geognosie, Geologie und innere Naturgeschichte der Erde, 10: 92). Established by Goldfuss in synonymy of Congeria, but used as valid, e.g. by de Stefani when he established the family Enocephalidae, thus making Enocephalus available under Art. 11.6.1. See also Aenocephalus. [details]
