The species is no more present in the Berlese Collection. In the concise original diagnosis some important characters are, however, mentioned (measurements, structure of the tegument, shape of sensillus), which are useful for identification. The species has been redescribed by Sellnick, Willmann, and
Maerkel
; the figures prepared by the last-mentioned author are very good.
2) cribarius is a lapsus for cribrarius (from cribrum, sieve).
