Remarks. Evimirus uropodinus has not yet been reported from Slovakia, but is widespread in warmer regions of South Europe. There are nine slides of this species in the Berlese Acaroteca, viz. 3/4–5 (type), 144/5–7, 146/37, 151/2, 174/46 and 191/22, all from moss and litter in Italy (Cansiglio, Cison di Valmarino, Treviso, Firenze, San Vincenzo, Pisa, Varese), but only five of them contain observable specimens (8 ♀♀ and 1 ♂), viz. 3/4–5, 151/2, 174/46, 191/22. This species is well-known and can be recognised from the descriptions and illustrations in the papers listed above.
