Hoplophorella cucullata View in CoL (Ewing, 1909)

Hoploderma cucullatum Ewing , 1909, p. 133, pl. 6 fig. 35.

Hoploderma licnophorum Berlese , 1913, p. 102, pl. 8 fig. 99.

Hoplophorella cucullata , Jacot, 1953, p. 249.

The type-specimens of H. cucullatum Ewing and H. licnophorum Berlese both have been collected by Crosby at the same locality: Columbia, Missouri. The original descriptions point to the same species, and Jacot (1933) regarded cucullatum and licnophorum already as Synonyms. Apparently Berlese himself also discovered this fact, because in 1923 he described a variety of " Phthiracarus (Hoplophorella) cucullatus ", of which the type-material is still labelled as " Phthiracarus (Hoplophorella) licnophora var. obsoletior ".

The type-slide (no. 142/5) of the species is still present in the Berlese Collection. There is no doubt about its identity with cucullata .
