166. Macrobiotus islandicus Richters, 1904a sensu lato [T]

Macrobiotus islandicus Richters, 1903 ( Jerez & Narváez 2001)

Terra typica: Iceland (Europe)

Colombia:

• 07°07′N, 73°02′W; 1,795 m asl: Santander Department, El Diviso Natural Reserve, pine forest ( Pinus patula ). Jerez & Narváez (2001)

Record numbers: Colombia: 1; total: 1.

Remarks: This nominal species of the M. islandicus group has a Holarctic distribution ( McInnes 1994a). Importantly, a similar subspecies, Macrobiotus islandicus nicaraguensis , is known from Central America ( Kaczmarek et al. 2014a), thus it is very likely that this single Colombian record belongs to M. i. nicaraguensis or to another species within the islandicus group.
