Two females – Cuba , north of Matanzas Province , from soil and litter. Remarks. Most of the published information on Pseudoparasitus missouriensis has been published under the name G . austriacus . It has been recorded many times, from North America, Europe and Russia . The species may be recognised by the relatively narrow exopodal plates behind coxa IV, very long and narrow metapodal plates, the very wide rounded genito-ventral shield, and a pair of opisthogastric setae in the soft skin between the genito-ventral and anal shields.
