Berlese's Primitive Oribatid Mites Author van der Hammen, L. text Zoologische Verhandelingen 1959 40 1 93 http://www.repository.naturalis.nl/document/148866 journal article ORI111 0DC6B575-3CB3-41C1-A3EC-850520AE4487 Eobrachychthonius latior (Berlese, 1910) Brachychthonius latior Berlese , 1910, p. 220, pl. 19 fig. 38; Lombardini, 1936, p. 38. Eobrachychthonius sexnotatus Jacot , 1936b, p. 24, pl. 1 figs. 3, 4. Eobrachychthonius latior , Forsslund, 1957, p. 584, figs. 1-3. As mentioned above, Forsslund placed E. sexnotatus in the synonymy of E. latior ; a list of further synonyms is also given by him. I remark that Jacot (1936b, p. 25) erroneously cites Berlese's species as Eobrachychthonius latus (latus being a lapsus for latior ); of course, B. latus Jacot (1936c, p. 248) is a different species. E . latior was described after specimens from Lake City, Florida; it is now also known from Europe and other parts of North America.
