(Macrosphenidae; Victorin's Warbler C. victorini) Gr. κρυπτος kruptos  obscure, hidden; ιλλας illas, ιλλαδος illados  thrush. "The generic term Phlexis Hartlaub is preoccupied in Coleoptera by Phlexys Erichson, emended by Agassiz to Phlexis.  It may be replaced by Cryptillas, from κρυπτος, occultus, and ιλλας, turdus; the type and sole species being Bradypterus victorini Sundevall." (Oberholser 1899); "Cryptillas Oberholser, 1899, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia,  p. 212.  New name for Phlexis Hartlaub, 1866, preoccupied by Phlexis Agassiz, 1842, an emendment of Phlexys Erichson, 1841 (Coleoptera)." (JAJ 2021).
