Nilgiris: Kleiner Djungel bei Coonoor, 1600 m. One ♂ and two ♀.

The MHNG collection contains three specimens in alcohol in two vials. The first vial (MHNG-ARTO-14234) contains one specimen broken into several pieces and an identification label with “ ♂ type Coonoor” written on it. The second vial (MHNG-ARTO-14235) contains two specimens broken into several pieces and an identification label with “Coonoor” written on it. The ♂ was not designated as holotype in the original description and so all of the specimens are syntypes. Picrogonopus gracillimus is the type species of the genus Picrogonopus Carl, 1941 by monotypy ( Jeekel, 1971).
