It looks like it was described by Chamberlin as Geophilus isantus but then transferred by him to Taiyuna a few years later. There is a note in the Mercurio catalog saying this might eventualy get transferred to another genus, but I'm pretty sure we don't have this species anywhere else on BG. Cedric is the expert and he can correct me if I'm wrong...

Was it known as something else previously?
I just want to make sure we don't already have it under a prior name before creating new genus and species pages.
