Sperchon (Hispidosperchon) hispidus Koenike, 1895

Sperchon amuzgari Bader & Sepasgozarian, 1979 n . syn.

Material examined. NHMB 1614, Sperchon amuzgari holotype ♂, S 77/4.

Remarks. Due to the similar shape of the palp and dorsum, III/IV-L-3–5 with numerous pinnate dorsal setae and sclerotized excretory pore, Sperchon amuzgari resembles Sperchon hispidus . A re-examination of the holotype of S. amuzgari, shows that it agrees in all important diagnostic features with S. hispidus . Therefore, S. amuzgari is synonymized here with S. hispidus .
