The type specimen of I. stolidus is a male which has been slightly abraded, while the type specimens of C. brevicornis and C. vexator are both females and agree well with each other.

Priority for the name C. stolidus is established, as Broun (1886) was published in April 1886, while Sharp (1886) was published in Nov 1886 (Alonso-Zarazaga & Lyal, 1999).
