Echiniscus canadensis Murray, 1910 sensu lato [T] Echiniscus ( E. ) bellus n. sp.

Mihelčič (1967) • 41°14′S , 71°46′W ; 800 m asl [ 850 m asl]: Rio Negro Province, Pampalinda [Pampa Linda] near Cainquenes [Rio Cauquenes] creek, lichens on sunny and dry trees. Mihelčič (1967) • 41°58′S , 71°31′W ; 390 m asl : Rio Negro Province, Bolson [El Bolsón], cypress grove, mosses on dry singles trees exposed to full sun and wind. Mihelčič (1967) Record numbers: Argentina : 3; total: 3.
