Terra typica: Argentina (South America)
Argentina:
• 41°12′S, 71°50′W; 1,000 m asl: Type Locality: Rio Negro Province, Tronador (Ventisqueros) [Ventisquero Negro del Cerro Tronador], dry mosses on stand-alone, sun-loving tree, mosses form dry soil, lichens on dry rocks in full sun, lichens on stand-alone, sun-loving tree and lichens on moist rocks below the glacier (5 samples). Mihelčič (1967)
• 41°58′S, 71°31′W; 390 m asl: Type Locality: Rio Negro Province, Bolson [El Bolsón], cypress grove, lichens on trees, sunny and dry, and mosses and lichens on dry rocks in full sun (3 samples). Mihelčič (1967)
• Undefined localities cited according Mihelčič (1967), mosses and lichens on trees, soil and rocks (6 samples). Mihelčič (1972)
Record numbers: Argentina: 3; total: 3.
Remarks: This arctomys group species is currently endemic to Argentina. No type location was given for this species and Ramazzotti & Maucci (1983) synonymised Echiniscus roseus (described at the same time (Mihelčič 1967)) as despite meticulous descriptions of the cuticle sculpture, it was deemed insufficient to distinguish the two species (see remarks to E. arctomys above).
