Ommatoiulus moreleti (Lucas, 1860) Iulus moreleti Lucas, 1860 . Julus lusitanicus Karsch, 1881 . Julus karschi Verhoeff, 1892 . Scizophyllum moreletii auct. Palaioiulus karschi auct. Distribution ES-CNY, ES-SPA, PT-AZO, PT-MDR, PT-POR. – Also introduced into the Afrotropical and Australian regions, and to Bermuda . Habitat Abundant in several habitats in Macaronesia, Portugal and Western Spain, with a large altitudinal range. On a site where it coexists with O. cingulatus and O. oliveirae , Bailey & de Mendonça (1990) found it in Quercus and Cistus litter but not in grassland where O. oliveirae predominated. In Australia it is regarded as a pest due to its sometimes extreme abundance see, e.g., http://www. polydesmida .info/ tasmanianmultipedes/milli-jul-exo.html. Remarks Quite a variable species (see, e.g., Baker 1984 ). O.cervinus is most likely a synonym of O. moreleti (N. Akkari in litt.).
