Nomenclature

 *  alboini. Strongylognathus huberi subsp. alboini Finzi, 1924b: 121 (w.) ITALY. Baroni Urbani, 1969c: 141 (q.m.). Raised to species: Baroni Urbani, 1969c: 141; Kutter, 1977c: 161.

Taxonomic Notes
Seifert (2018) found that Strongylognathus italicus clusters with, and is morphologically similar to, Strongylognathus alboini and the two should be synonomised. However, currently available data did not exclude the possibility that Strongylognathus destefanii (or one of its two junior synonyms, Strongylognathus emeryi or Strongylognathus huberi cecconii) may be a senior synonym within this set. As such, no formal taxonomic changes were proposed.
