Genus
Polycystis (Opisthocystis) · unaccepted (Karling (1963) mentions...)  
Karling (1963) mentions Opisthocystis as a subgenus of Polycystis, followed by Artois (2001). However, Sekera (1911) never described it as a subgenus, so the mentioning by Karling (1963) and Artois (2001) as a subgenus is erroneous.
