OK swapped https://www.inaturalist.org/taxon_changes/114826
can you comment on these and let the IDers know that we've carved off Ctenophora bifascipennis from Ctenophora so the meaning of that taxon might be different than the IDer intended?

Thank you for the revision, I will comment on them.
Currently C. bifascipennis and Pselliophora bifascipennis are both listed in the iNaturalist taxonomy. Likely because Pselliophora was once treated as a subgenus of Ctenophora. Recent studies seem to use Pselliophora as a valid genus, so it looks like C. bifascipennis should be merged with P. bifascipennis.
