Remarks

Steinmann (1993: 596), in the entry for F. chopardi , cites ‘1947 Anechura chopardi Hincks’ as the original described taxon. This should read ‘1947 Forficula chopardi Hincks’. Hincks described Anechura chopardi in 1958 ( Hincks 1958a: 185). Brindle (1973f: 270) transferred Anechura chopardi to Forficula with the new name F. borellii ( F. chopardi Hincks, 1947 being the senior homonym). In Steinmann

1989c the two species, F. borellii Brindle, 1973 (p. 815) and F. chopardi Hincks, 1947 (p. 817) are clearly distinguished.
