Brachychthonius italicus Berlese

Description

Brachychthonius italicus Berlese, 1910

Brachychthonius brevis var. italicus Berlese, 1910, p. 220, pl. 19 fig. 40.

B. italicus was described as a variety of B. brevis Berlese (non Michael). Modern authors correctly regard it as a separate species. Jacot (1938, p. 131) classified B. italicus in Brachychochthonius, which generic name here is considered a synonym of Brachychthonius.

The species is known from several countries in Europe; the type-locality is Florence.
