 Comments
       
  Comment: Mégnin (1891:759-763) coined the monotypic genus Lophoptes and the species Lophoptes patavinus. Per Beron (2014: 133, 137), the species name is in synonymy under Ornithonyssus sylviarum (Canestrini and Fanzago, 1877) and the genus is listed in synonymy under Ornithonyssus Sambon, 1928, without discussion. If Lophoptes Mégnin, 1891 is available then it should take priority over Sambon's name, unless there is a way to suppress the senior name, for the sake of stability, under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature
