Validity According to Hargis (1959), P. mexicanum is a valid species but “almost congeneric” with M. sinaloense. The independence of both genera was established by Suriano (1975). Recently, the amended diagnosis of the genus Macrovalvitrema Caballero & Bravo-Hollis, 1955 was published by Hernández-Vale et al. (2016), who recognized their independence of PterinotrematoidesCaballero & Bravo-Hollis, 1955. [details]
