Bohmig L 1895 (citation)- in list p 44. Graff L v 1902 (citation)- says this species must go to Amphicoerus. Says Aphanostoma virescens Amphicoerus virescens- comparison of this and Amphicoerus rhomboides- occur in Puerto Rico. Graff L v 1904 (citation)- description of this as Amphicoerus, but he also lists an Aphanostoma virescens. Brinkmann A 1905 (citation)- notes occurence of. Lohner L 1913 (citation)- considers this a species of Amphiscolops. on bursal nozzles in. Places in Polychoerus. Steinbock O 1931 (citation)- from Faroes- description and illustration. Steinbock O 1932 (citation)- lists as Amphiscolops virescens from the Arctic p 300. Steinbock O 1938 (citation)- reports from Iceland. Westblad E 1946 (citation)- moves Amphiscolops virescens into same genus as Aphanostoma diversicolor and calls it Paraconvoluta, p 51. Marcus E 1947 (citation)- p 161- notes action of Lohner and says finally this transferred to Paraconvoluta by Westblad 1946. Westblad E 1948 (citation)- notes that in English summary p 74 notes this genus should be called Aphanostoma [law of priority Oersted described both in 1845 as Aphanostoma]- Says this and diversicolor should be Aphanostoma - and other Aphanostoma are Mecynostomum. Marcus E 1948 (citation)- that Westblad (1946) should have maintained genus Aphanostoma for virescens and diversicolor; therefore Paraconvoluta (Westbl) becomes a synonym of Aphanostoma, p 112, 187.
