Heminothrus ornatissimus (Berlese, 1910)

Angelia ornatissima Berlese , 1910, p. 224, pl. 20 fig. 61.

The types of Angelia ornatissima (viz. the nos. 81/9, 15 from Lake City, Florida) are still present in the collection. The species certainly belongs to the genus Heminothrus ; the figure will probably be sufficient for purposes of identification. The length is 0.585-0.600, and the breadth 0.290 mm; according to Berlese the measurements are 0.650 X 0.330 mm, in which the hairs are possibly included.

I remark that Berlese (1913) did not mention the species as a representative of the subgenus Heminothrus .
