Description

Macrocheles perglaber Filipponi and Pegazzano, 1962

Macrocheles perglaber Filipponi and Pegazzano, 1962: 221.

Occurrences. Dömösd, Dunabogdány, Dunavecse, Fertőszentmiklós, Isaszeg, Misina, Nagybárkány, Perkáta, Pócsmegyer, Kopáncs, Sámsonháza, Sukoró, Szabadbattyány, Töltéstava, Vác, Velence, Zamárdi, Zebegény (Erőss and Mahunka, 1971a).

Notes. The differences between the M. glaber and M. perglaber is very week based on female morphology (Halliday, 1986), but Mašán (2003) listed some characters (e.g. shape of some dorsal setae) of female which can help to separate these two species, but investigation without the males seems to be very uncertain. Erőss and Mahunka (1971a,b) collected this species from dung of cattle, horse and pig, but they did not give information about the sexes of the collected specimens. Therefore the Hungarian occurrence of this species needs to be confirmed.
