Heterochthonius View in CoL Berlese, 1910

Heterochthonius Berlese, 1910, pp. 221, 222.

Berlese (1910) created Heterochthonius as a subgenus of Cosmochthonius ; he mentioned the simple dorsal hairs and the long tarsi as differential characters. Ewing (1917, p. 125) already regarded Heterochthonius as a separate genus, which opinion was established by Grandjean (1928) in his detailed description of H. gibbus , the type species.
