Remarks: Hoff (1944a: 332) erroneously cited Rioja, 1944 as the authority for Entocythere dobbini bicuspis [sic]. Entocythere bicuspide was elevated to species rank in Rioja (1949), and reassigned to the newly established genus Uncinocythere by Hart (1962). The synonymization of Entocythere uncinata with U. bicuspide occurred with full discussion in Hobbs Jr. (1971: 24, 26), but was listed nearly a decade earlier in Hart (1962: 137); Hart (1962: 124) stated that the synonymy for U. bicuspide was provided to him by Hobbs, who was at that point preparing what would become his 1971 monograph on the entocytherids of Mexico and Cuba. Hart & Hart (1974: 124) question the record of this species from Tomatlán, Veracruz, Mexico, and caution that this locality be confirmed. Young (1971) erroneously claimed that U. bicuspide was found on a freshwater crab, citing Hobbs & Villalobos (1958) as the source of this information. Interestingly, Hobbs & Villalobos (1958) did not actually name the entocytherid in their abstract; it was only upon publication of Hobbs Jr. (1971) that the freshwater crabdwelling entocytherid was known to be Uncinocythere zaruri.
