Similar Species: Pinned specimens of related species. (Hint: select View by Region on the related species page.) Synonymy: • Thymelicus edwardsii Barnes, 1897 Taxonomic Notes: Copaeodes edwardsii (Barnes, 1897) is transferred from the genus Oarisma in Pelham (2022) [revised 2 February 2022]. Zhang et al. (2019) determined that Copaeodes and Oarisma are congeneric. Pelham's treatment resolves monophyly and preserves these two genera.
