Pachylaelaps pannonicus
Willmann
,
nomen nudum
Notes.
Franz (1975
, Table 227) referred to a species as "
Pachylaelaps pannonicus
Willm.
".
Schmölzer (1995)
used the same name, in the form "
Pachylaelaps pannonicus
Willmann
(nom. nud.)", which he considered to be a junior synonym of
Pachylaelaps pectinifer
(G. & R. Canestrini). We have not been able to find any published description of
Pachylaelaps pannonicus
Willmann. However
, in the Willmann collection in Munich, there is a slide labelled
Pachylaelaps pannonicus
n. sp.
(det. C. Willmann) (shelf No. 45 / slide No. 12). The specimen on this slide is represented only by legs II and the gnathosoma of a male mite. It appears to be a specimen of
Pachylaelaps littoralis
Halbert, 1915
(Mašán, personal observations). The comments by
Franz (1975)
and
Schmölzer (1995)
may refer to the same slide.
