Mexico temperata. Unspecified number of ♂ and ♀.
Saussure & Humbert (1872) gave a more detailed redescription and gave the locality “Cordillère orientale, région moyenne”. The MHNG collection contains two specimens in alcohol under the name
Fontaria mystecus
. There is no data label but the identification labels in the jar have “Mexique” written on them. One of these labels reads “
Polydesmus mystecus Sss
et H., Type, Mexique”, indicating that the specimens are syntypes.
