Status details:		misapplied name, misapplied
Status ref. :		Daget, J. and G.G. Teugels, 1991
Comment :		Synonymy with H. bimaculatus is counter to prevailing usage and seems to derive from a sweeping comment in Ref. 7378:740. The species is valid but difficult to recognize (see revision of Loiselle (1979).
