Summary:U. simile (Stossich, 1902) n. comb. Syn. U. magniembria Witenberg, 1923 Type host. “ Himantopus atropterus ” as spelled by Yamaguti (1971) (As far as we can determine this is not a valid species. There are two species of Himantopus world wide: the black-winged or common stilt, Himantopus himantopus [Linnaeus], and the black-necked stilt, H. mexicanus [Müller] [Charadriiformes: Recurvirostridae], and only H. himantopus would likely be present in Egypt or the Russian Federation). Type locality. Cairo, Egypt. Additional hosts. Northern lapwing, Vanellus vanellus (Linnaeus) (Charadriiformes: Charadriidae)— Witenberg (1923); “Stilt”, Himantopus candidus (Bonnaterre) (Not a valid bird species – see above)— Chertkova et al. (1994). Additional localities. Alexandria, Egypt; Russian Federation; Turkestan; Volga Delta—Witenberg (1923); USSR (CIS)— Chertkova et al. (1994). Previously proposed synonyms. Cyclocoelum similis (Stossich, 1902) — Joyeux & Baer (1927); Haematotrephus consimilis Nicoll, 1914 — Bashkirova ... : Published as part of Dronen, Norman O. & Blend, Charles K., 2015, Updated keys to the genera in the subfamilies of Cyclocoelidae Stossich, 1902, including a reconsideration of species assignments, species keys and the proposal of a new genus in Szidatitreminae Dronen, 2007, pp. 1-100 in Zootaxa 4053 (1) on page 45, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4053.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/237117 ...
