Australia (ACT, NSW, SA (Kangaroo Island), TAS, VIC). Remarks. Hull (1973: 239) was aware that the genus occurred in Western Australia , but misidentified his Western Australian specimens as M. sumptuosum . An unverified record of this species from Queensland ( Evenhuis & Greathead, 1999 ) was followed in the literature by Rodrigues et al . (2017) .
