Treatment

Dioxyna crockeri (Curran) , new combination

Paroxyna crockeri Curran 1934: 157 .

Campiglossa crockeri: Norrbom et al. 1999: 109 .

This species was described in Paroxyna by Curran (1934) and was transferred to Campiglossa , the senior synonym of Paroxyna , by Norrbom et al. (1999). However, the long proboscis, elongate head, and lack of spinules on the phallus proximal to the glans in this species indicate that it belongs in Dioxyna rather than Campiglossa . It is known only from the Galápagos Islands.
