216. Dolichoiulus dubiosus Enghoff, 1992 View in CoL

Distribution

ES-CNY (La Gomera).

Habitat

A forest species, known only from El Cedro and Los Aceviños.

Remarks

The species was described from a female specimen which may correspond to a male described by Loksa (1967) from laurisilva and assigned by him to D. tiendarius (Attems, 1911) . Subsequent, unpublished finds (material in ZMUC) including a male have confirmed this. D. tiendarius is similar to but smaller than D. dubiosus and is not a forest species.
