Description
13. Echiniscus canadensis Murray, 1910 sensu lato [T]
Echiniscus (E.) bellus n. sp. (Mihelčič, 1967)
Terra typica: Canada (North America)
Argentina:
• 41°12′S, 71°50′W; 1,000 m asl: Rio Negro Province, Tronador (Ventisqueros) [Ventisquero Negro del Cerro Tronador], dry mosses on single, trees in full sun. Mihelčič (1967)
• 41°14′S, 71°46′W; 800 m asl [850 m asl]: Rio Negro Province, Pampalinda [Pampa Linda] near Cainquenes [Rio Cauquenes] creek, lichens on sunny and dry trees. Mihelčič (1967)
• 41°58′S, 71°31′W; 390 m asl: Rio Negro Province, Bolson [El Bolsón], cypress grove, mosses on dry singles trees exposed to full sun and wind. Mihelčič (1967)
Record numbers: Argentina: 3; total: 3.
Remarks: With the exception of Mihelčič’s (1967) records for the Argentina the species is known only from the Holarctic (McInnes 1994a), and therefore the South American reports should be considered dubious and will require verification.
