Aslam in 1968 for Syagrus viridicollis Pic, 1942, a junior homonym of Syagrus viridicollis Pic, 1940 (now known as Paraivongius viridicollis).[1][5] It was first described from the locality of Adrar des Ifoghas by Maurice Pic in 1942.[2] No further records of the species have been published since Pic's description.[3]
