Originally described as Paralomanius brevipalpus Goodnight & Goodnight 1948, later In Hallan as "Lomanius brevipalpus (Goodnight & Goodnight, 1948):11 [Pelew Island] [=Paralomanius brevipalpus Goodnight & Goodnight, 1948]. This recombination (which seems essentially unpublished) may be from inference that Paralomanius Goodnight & Goodnight, 1948 (with genotype Paralomanius longipalpus Goodnight & Goodnight 1948) became a junior synonym of Lomanius Roewer, 1923 in Goodnight & Goodnight 1957 - but missed that Paralomanius brevipalpus (or rather Eulomanius brevipalpus - per Roewer 1949) was already a junior synonym of Lomanius longipalpus (Goodnight & Goodnight, 1948) per Goodnight & Goodnight 1957: 75. That plus the synonym were later restored to original combination of Paralomanius longipalpus Goodnight & Goodnight, 1948 per Zhang et al. 2013: 216
