  Gen. Helicius  Proszynski, 1976 [Zabka, 1981]

type: Telamonia cylindrata

   H. Proszynski 1976: 16 (appoinment of a new genus by indication of its type species  - Telamonia 
   cylindrata (Karsch, 1879) (originally Maevia cylindrata    Karsch, 1879) - see also , f 242, 376-382 and 
   label data - p 186 in the same paper.

   H.: Platnick 1989 (and further Internet versions): 572 - attributes to Zabka 1981: 38-39. 
  Comment by J. Proszynski. Genus created by Proszynski 1976: 16 by indication of the type species and providing detailed 
  drawings of a representative species - f 373-382, quotation of the label data - p. 186, and a map 69. Several Authors using
  name Helicius between 1976 and 1987, and attributing it to Proszynski 1976, did that following personal communications.
  There is no doubt that intellectual  property of creating idea of the genus belongs to J. Proszynski. As for fulfilment of 
  biurocratic requirements of "formal description in words" a good precedens is given by recognition of Simon's "description"  
  (two lines diagnostically meaningless) of Canama kochi in Simon, 1903a: 813, who "... provided purportedly diagnostic
   information and the specific name is therefore valid" (Platnick 2004: Internet). "... purportedly diagnostic ..." information of
  Helicius in Proszynski 1976 are much more satisfying.  J. Proszynski
