Oedothorax limatus Crosby, 1905: 311 View in CoL , 335, pl. 29, fig. 6 (Df).

Type material: Lectotype: USA: Ithaca, NY, Nov. ( AMNH, not examined).

Diagnosis:

Males: Unknown.

Distribution: North America.

Remarks: The one epigyne drawing provided in Crosby (1905) is clearly different from the characteristic conformation observed in Oedothorax s.s..
