Notes: Broun based this species on a single specimen that we located in the BMNH Broun Collection and is confirmed to be the holotype. The original identification label was written as Eupines, but the original combination was published under Bryaxis . This species was questionably placed in the subgenus Eupines by Nomura & Leschen (2006) and will be transferred to the genus Gastrobothrus in a later paper.
