Myrsidea thoracica ( Giebel, 1874)

Host: Turdus viscivorus Linnaeus, 1758 .

Ref.: Hudec (1983) as Myrsidea sp. ; this paper.

Location: Nízke Tatry—Čertovica, 29 Jun. 1960 (Balát Coll., MMBC slide number 1210-2x) .

Notes: Hudec (1983) recorded Myrsidea sp. from this host, but without giving a location. This record was probably made on the basis of slide 1210-2x from the Balát Coll., because there is no other Myrsidea from this host in the collection. Together with the above, this is a new record of Myrsidea thoracica from Slovakia.
