Type species.

Kronopolites svenhedini ( Verhoeff, 1934) sp. reval., by present designation.

Diagnosis.

See Likhitrakarn et al. (2015: 29).

Remarks.

Attems (1914) established the genus and designated Strongylosoma swinhoei Pocock, 1895 as the type species by monotypy. However, due to the misidentification of this species, which was later transferred to Nedyopus , the correct designation by Attems, Kronopolites svenhedini ( Verhoeff, 1934) sp. reval., has now been reclassified as the type species of the genus.
