Remarks

This species was described from seven females of which one was found agreeing with Borgmeier’s description, and although this specimen is labelled as a “ paratype ” and “cotype”, since neither a unique holotype or lectotype has yet been fixed, all of the type series is still syntypic (Article 73.2). The syntype is micropinned and entire. This species was transferred to Mimopriella Masner & García, 2002 by Masner & García (2002).
