Turkey.
Remarks
Chamberlin gave only sketchy data viz. length: 20 mm, cephalic plate and tergite 1 without sutures, tergites with paramedian sutures. Pore field with up to 15 pores and extending to posterior margin of coxopleuron. Ultimate legs without spine-like setae or teeth; with 10 tibial and 4 tarsal saw teeth. Zapparoli (1990a)[2] noted that the species is insufficiently described and its identity must be checked. It is here regarded as a nomen dubium.
