).
Notes. The slide in the Mitchell collection is from one of the specimens mentioned by
Raub
et al.
(1979: 120)
in “Collections examined” and the date and locality coincide with the type. These authors also mention that the
holotype
is deposited in NY00834206 along with several
isotypes
(NY00834207, NY00834208) and
paratypes
(NY00834210, NY00834212, NY00834214, NY00834215, NY00834216, NY00834209, NY00834211, NY00834213).
Paratypes
also were sent to
BPI
743773,
BPI
743971, K, and the collection of H.W. Keller. We did not find the material in Kew database.

Notes. According to
Moreno
et al.
(2011: 101)
, the
holotype
collected by Mitchell is from “
USA
:
Arizona
,
40 km
E of Flagstaff, on herbivore dung in moist chamber,
27-V-2000
, leg. D.W. Mitchell, DWM 6071
holotype
, AH 39265
isotype
”. However, in the Mitchell collection we did not find this material so it must only be conserved in AH. There was another specimen (DWM 7870) from
New Mexico
, Monastery Road, elk dung, wet 31/7/12, harvested
11 Sept. 2012
but it is not type material.
