Notes: This species had been transferred to the genera Macracis ( Dossé, 1939) , and Pseudalaeuris ( Skrjabin et al., 1951) , and was considered a synonym of Ozolaimus monhystera (Bravo-Hollis & Brenes- Madrigal, 1959); however, Baker (1987) and Moravec et al. (1996) considered O. ctenosauri as a valid species. Specimens from Huajintlán were determined as Ozolaimus monhystera (Cid del Prado, 1971), but redetermined as O. ctenosauri by Moravec et al., (1996).
