note: Jirkov treats Scolelepis as masculine but it is feminine [details]  Available for editors  PDF available [request] 
From editor or global species database
Grammatical gender Scolelepis is feminine, as treated by Blainville originally, and the code in Art. 30 gives -lepis as feminine as an example. Therefore Jirkov's 'foliosus' change is incorrect. [details]
