Paraplatybunus was a proposed subgenus of harvestmen in the family Phalangiidae. It is subsequently treated as a junior subjective synonym of Rilaena Šilhavý, 1965. It was originally created as Platybunus (Paraplatybunus) Dumitrescu, 1970,[1] with the type species as Opilio triangularis Herbst, 1799, later recombined as Rilaena triangularis (Herbst, 1799).
It has been (mis)listed online at the rank of genus,[2] yet no statement to that effect has been since found in the published literature.
