Treatment

Heminothrus thori (Berlese, 1904)

Angelia Thori Berlese , 1904a, p. 27s.

Nothrus (Heminothrus) thori , Berlese, 1913, p. 99, pl. 7 fig. 83.

Heminothrus thori , Lombardini, 1936, p. 42.

Platynothrus thori , Sellnick & Forsslund, 1955, p. 521, figs. 23-25.

The present species has a separate position because the coxisternal region is completely scleritized. Sellnick & Forsslund (1955) classified thori with Platynothrus ; for the moment I prefer to list the species as a Heminothrus .

The type of H. thori is still present in the Berlese Collection (slide no. 16/38). Berlese recorded a length of 1.000 mm; according to Sellnick & Forsslund it is 0.954-1.000 mm.
