Remarks. Originally described from Chile ( Plate 1888), Minibiotus intermedius was considered cosmopolitan (e.g. McInnes 1994) though modern taxonomy has shown it to be a species complex ( Claxton 1998). It is most probable that non-Neotropical records for Minibiotus intermedius actually refer to different taxon within the species-group; several of which have been recently described from African locations. All African records for M. intermedius should be re-examined.
