status

 

Nautarachna crassa (Koenike, 1908)

Material examined.

Portugal, Guarda • Manteigas, Casa do Cantoneiro , 40.418°N, 7.603°W, 1378 m a.s.l., 24 Aug. 2023, leg. Ferreira, Benitez-Bosco & Padilha, 1 ♀ (sequenced) GoogleMaps .

Remarks.

The sequenced female of N. crassa from Portugal forms a distinct BIN ( BOLD: AFV 0462). The p - distance between the specimen from Portugal and the barcode of a N. crassa specimen ( MMHYD 270-20) collected in Norway, is estimated at 16.7 %, indicating the need for a taxonomic revision of N. crassa complex to identify possible undescribed cryptic species.

Distribution.

Europe; widespread but here reported for the first time for the water mite fauna of Portugal.
