CIRCONISCUS PALLIDUS ARCANGELI, 1936 View in CoL

Circoniscus pallidus – Souza & Lemos de Castro (1991); Souza-Kury (1998*); Leistikow & Wägele (1999*); Schmalfuss (2003*).

Holotype ♀ ( Brazil, São Paulo, Piraju, leg. E. Caroli, 1911).

Remark

The type was not seen. It is unknown whether it still exists in any collection. According to the description, it is a female of length 2.84 mm and width 1.3 mm width. The illustrations allow us to state that it belongs to the genus Circoniscus ; therefore, the size may indicate that it is a juvenile specimen. Therefore, if the type is found, in all probability its examination will not clarify the identity of this nominal species.
