Ochthebius (Ochthebius) mahmoodi Jäch & Delgado 2014 View in CoL

Published records. JÄCH & DELGADO (2014).

Material examined. Loc.8: 2 ♁♁; Loc. 12: 19 spec. (1 ♁ used for DNA extraction, voucher No. IBE-RA126, sequences published in ABELLÁN et al. 2013 as Ochthebius nr. difficilis; VILLASTRIGO et al. 2019).

Notes. Ochthebius mahmoodi was described based on specimens from the UAE and Oman, which in part had been misidentified as O. monseti Jäch & Delgado, 2010 , as both species were said to be indistinguishable based on external morphology ( JÄCH & DELGADO 2014). However, based on molecular data of specimens of both species from Oman they are not even sisters, being O. monseti sister to the Iberian O. montesi Ferro, 1984 , and O. mahmoodi sister to O. micans Balfour-Browne, 1951 (specimen from Djibouti), all at considerable genetic distance ( VILLASTRIGO et al. 2019).
