Rheumaptera undulata (Linnaeus, 1758), the type species of the genus Hydria where it was placed in Hodges et al. (1983), was transferred to Rheumaptera in Scoble (1999) and then returned to Hydria in Hausmann & Viidalepp (2012). More recently it has been shown in Brehm et al. (2019:S1) to be sister to Rheumaptera hastata (Linnaeus, 1758), the type species of Rheumaptera, based on both mitochondrial and nuclear markers, confirming the synonymy of the genus Hydria with Rheumaptera in Scoble (1999).
