Distribution.
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)
.
