Abstract: Parallelodon expansus De Koninck, 1885 Original source De Koninck (1885): 144 [as P. dilatatus], 260 (Corrections), pl. 21 figs 13–15, 22–23 [as P. expansus]. Type stratum and age “calcaire carbonifère des Pauquys (étage II)”; Waulsort Formation, upper Tournaisian, Mississippian, Carboniferous. Type locality “ Pauquys ”; Hastière, Namur, Wallonia, Belgium. Type material The illustrated syntypes are stored at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels, coll. no. RBINS a4660 (old no. 691; pl. 21 figs 13–15) and coll. no. RBINS a4661 (old. no. 678; pl. 21 figs 22–23). Remarks De Koninck (1885) erected two species with the same name (dilatatus) and renamed one of them in the Corrections (p. 260) as P. expansus. The name dilatatus on p. 144 is therefore an incorrect original spelling and not a separately available name (ICZN 1999, Art. 32.4).
