The sample seems to be lost, but the record of M. davidcauseyi from Lexington, Fayette Co., Kentucky ( Causey 1955), indicated by the question mark in fig. 2, is some 848 km (530 mi) east-northeast of this species’ enclave in northwestern Arkansas and is unlikely to represent it. Causey’s identification equates with RMS’ initial conclusion upon viewing M. dilatata , suggesting that it constitutes another and an undescribed species of the dilatata group; alternatively, it could also represent a new genus. The locality is too far removed from authentic Arkansas localities to plausibly be M. davidcauseyi , so we tentatively assign the Fayette Co., Kentucky, form to the dilatata group.
