Oribotritia breviseta View in CoL (Berlese, 1923)

Tritia berlesei var. breviseta Berlese , 1923, p. 261.

The type-specimen of breviseta (slide no. 216/27) from East Africa is still present in the Collection.

Berlese described it as a variety of Tritia berlesei (= Oribotritia decumana ); I consider the " variety " a separate species because of its very short notogastral hairs.
