Eobrachychthonius latior (Berlese, 1910)

Brachychthonius latior Berlese, 1910, p. 220, pl. 19 fig. 38; Lombardini, 1936, p. 38.

Eobrachychthonius sexnotatus Jacot, 1936b, p. 24, pl. 1 figs. 3, 4.

Eobrachychthonius latior, Forsslund, 1957, p. 584, figs. 1-3.

As mentioned above, Forsslund placed E. sexnotatus in the synonymy of E. latior; a list of further synonyms is also given by him. I remark that Jacot (1936b, p. 25) erroneously cites Berlese's species as Eobrachychthonius latus (latus being a lapsus for latior); of course, B. latus Jacot (1936c, p. 248) is a different species.

E . latior was described after specimens from Lake City, Florida; it is now also known from Europe and other parts of North America.
