• Scrutiny:
  • Dolling, 2011, Two species, dentipes Fabricius and linearis Fabricius, were included in the genus at its foundation and thus available for designation as its type species. Distant, 1902d: 413 validly designated dentipes. Assertions by Oshanin, 1912 and subsequent authors that pedestris Fabricius is the type species are incorrect. The subgenus Melanolamprus, if recognised, would probably render the nominate subgenus paraphyletic.
• Type species:  Cimex dentipes Fabricius, by subsequent designation; authority:  Distant. 1902. The fauna of British India, including Ceylon and Burma. Rhynchota 1 (Heteroptera) i-xxviii + 1-438, 424 text-figs
