status

 

Hapalotremus muticus ( Mello-Leitão, 1923) species inquirenda

Goniodontium muticum Mello-Leitão, 1923: 127.

Goniodontium was transferred to Hapalotremus by Raven (1985): 151.

Type material

Holotype female: Brazil, Bahia, Villa Nova, Garbo E. leg. Museu Paulista (N. 159), not examined.

Remarks

Hapalotremus muticus was described by Mello-Leitão in 1923 from a single female collected in Villa Nova , state of Bahia, Brazil ( Figure 4 View Figure 4 ). Mello-Leitão noted a reduced number of labial cuspules (of about three or seven) and maxillary cuspules of about 10–12. The author also remarked that the tarsi of all legs are scopulated and undivided. The original description does not warrant recognition of the species, and, therefore the identity of H. muticus cannot be confirmed. The species is here considered species inquirenda, pending the finding of the type material or availability and careful examination of material from the type locality .
