I note that in the Titan database and in Larry's Cerambycidae Catalog Prosopocera (Paralphitopola) sofala Distant, 1898 is given as a junior synonym of Parahyagnis ficivorus (Pascoe, 1864). I cannot find where this synonym was proposed....
Sudre et al 2018 does propose the syn of Prosopocera (Paralphitopola) sofala Distant m. flavoconfluens Breuning, 1977 with Parahyagnis ficivorus a synonymy that may have been understood to include P. (Paralphitopola) sofala. But sofala has a scar on the apex of the scape and thus can not belong to the genus Parahyagnis. |

Mistakenly inferred synonym?
