Remarks. The species was described by Chamberlin (1952) from south Turkey, and attributed to a new genus, Archeobius Chamberlin, 1952. The specimens examined agree with the scanty original description by Chamberlin (1952), unpublished specimens from Turkey examined by MZ and the morphological notes given by Negrea (2005) on materials from Palestine.
