[Note: a problem in nomenclature. The genus-group name Anacantholepis first appears in Santschi, 1914b: 122 (date of publication 25.ii.1914), and includes two species, Plagiolepis jouberti and Plagiolepis pictipes. This publication almost certainly antedates Santschi, 1914e: 36 (date of publication (31.xii).1914, according to Bolton, 1995b: 481 and Ward et al., 1996: 319), where two different species are mentioned: Plagiolepis decora, and Plagiolepis vanderkelleni. It would appear that under ICZN Articles 12.2.5, 12.2.6, and 12.2.7 that Santschi, 1914b: 122, provides an indication which renders Anacantholepis available from that date. If so, the type-species should be either Plagiolepis jouberti or Plagiolepis pictipes. Note that Santschi, 1926a: 15, counts Santschi, 1914e as the initial record. This small nomenclatural tangle remains to be resolved.]
