Ikossimus Roewer, 1931: 334 View in CoL (type species by monotypy: Ikossimus fuscus Roewer, 1931 View in CoL ). Synonymized with Santinezia View in CoL by González-Sponga 2003: 3.

Chondrocranaus Roewer, 1932: 341 View in CoL (type species by monotypy: Chondrocranaus scriptus Roewer, 1932 View in CoL ). Independently synonymized with Santinezia View in CoL by Pinto-da-Rocha & Kury 2003: 181 and González-Sponga 2003: 25.

Macuchicola Mello-Leitão, 1943: 4 View in CoL (type species by original designation: Macuchicola arthrocentrica Mello-Leitão, 1943 View in CoL ). Synonymized with Santinezia View in CoL by Pinto-da-Rocha & Kury 2003: 181.

Cranaostygnus Caporiacco, 1951: 26 View in CoL (type species by monotypy: Cranaostygnus marcuzzii Caporiacco, 1951 View in CoL ). Synonymized with Santinezia View in CoL by González-Sponga 2003: 3.

Carvalholeptes H. Soares, 1970: 330 View in CoL (type species by original designation: Carvalholeptes singularis H. Soares, 1970 ). Synonymized with Santinezia View in CoL by Pinto-da-Rocha & Kury 2003: 181.

Diagnosis. The same diagnosis as Pinto-da-Rocha & Kury (2003: 181) give for Santinezia .

Justification of the synonymies. Both type species of Acanthocranaus and Comboyus present a ventral spur on male coxa IV and penis with folded glans, diagnostic characteristics traditionally regarded as typical of the genus Santinezia . However, type species of Phareicranaus , P. calcariferus , presents a tubercle on male coxa IV larger than other ventral tubercles and homologous to the ventral spur of Santinezia . In addition, the type species of these three genera share paired spines on ocularium, area III and tergite III, as well as area II invading I, features present in all species here assigned to Phareicranaus .
