Proctolaelaps novus Lombardini 1960, new combination
Description
Proctolaelaps novus (Lombardini , 1960) new combination
Cosmolaelaps ? novus Lombardini, 1960: 256.
Cosmolaelaps ? novus.— Moreira et al., 2014: 322
TYPE DEPOSITORY: not stated.
TYPE LOCALITY AND HABITAT: Buenos Aires, Argentina, in nest of Acromyrmex lundi (Insecta: Formicidae). NOTE: we have provisionally placed this species in Proctolaelaps on the basis of the shape of the anal shield with enlarged anus, and the form of the spermatodactyl and epistome. Lombardini (1960: 256) described and illustrated five setae on the anal shield of this species. We believe that was an error, but that can only be confirmed by examination of the types or new material from the type locality.
