TYPE MATERIAL : Holotype not examined. TYPE LOCALITY : Mexico , state of Mexico , Cerro Tlaloc, 3800 m . DISCUSSION: The holotype of this species is not in either Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM) or the Museo de Historia Natural de la Ciudad de Mexico (S. Santiago, personal commun.), although Hendrichs (1979) indicated that the specimens were deposited in the latter museum, and much of his material is in UNAM (S. Santiago, personal commun.). The species is clearly in the A. aztec subgroup of the A. oniscoides group based on the shape of the median lobe, which has lateral sulci and carinae, and the strongly sinuate lateral lobes. However, Hendrichs’ description is not detailed enough, nor are his illustrations adequate to differentiate A. mexicanum from the many other species of Agathidium in Mexico that are distributed near the type locality.
