Olivinirmus agadirensis Mey, 2017
Olivinirmus agadirensis Mey, 2017: 112, fig. 35, pl. IV: figs 3–4. Species inquirenda
Type host: Pica pica mauritanica Malherbe, 1845 —Eurasian magpie.
Type locality: Agadir, Morocco.
Remarks. Olivinirmus agadirensis Mey, 2017 is a member of the Ol. glandarii species group (sensu Gustafsson & Bush 2017). At present, it is not possible to clearly distinguish Ol. agadirensis from Ol. glandarii (Denny, 1842), as all characters purporting to separate them are either in the pigmentation patterns or variable within species, with the exception of the shape of the mesosome. Considering that the mesosome of Ol. glandarii illustrated by Gustafsson & Bush (2017: fig. 331) is more similar to that of Mey’s (2017: fig. 35b) for Ol. agadirensis than to Mey’s (2017: fig. 35a) illustration of Ol. glandarii, it is uncertain whether this character can separate the two species.
