Eudicella smithii or dicranorrhina smithi?

Good evening! If someone knows the transfers of taxa over the past 50 years, please tell me: Bram's book contains information about Dicranorrhina smithi, a beetle that I could not find anywhere (information about it). At the same time, I found on the Internet Eudicella smithii - a beetle, which, according to the description presented in the book, is just the same insect from the book. Could a beetle have been transferred from one genus to another in the time since the book was compiled (1860)? There is another option - the Dicranorrhina smithi beetle was combined with Dicranorrhina micans. What do you think?

Yes, not for the last 50 years, as it turned out, I mixed up the century...

They could have done it in the last 50 days, of course...
