Distribution. Recorded from numerous caves, as well as endogean habitats in the Prealps in northeast Italy ( Minelli, 1985; present study).
Remarks. The species was originally described as Mesoporoiulus maximus on the basis of a single female specimen. After examining a male, Verhoeff (1930) revised his opinion, recognizing T. maximus as a “true” Typhloiulus . In addition, he downgraded Mesoporoiulus to a subgenus of Typhloiulus with T. (M.) tobias Berlese as the only affiliated species.
T. maximus is host to the ectoparasitic laboulbeniacean fungus Troglomyces manfrediae Colla ( Santamaria et al. 2014) View in CoL .
