Jalaeian
et al
. (2004)
identified this species under the name of
Pachylaelaps brachiosus
based on one female specimen (M. Jalaeian,
July 2015
, personal communications), while the original description of that species by
Hirschmann & Krauss (1965)
was based on a male specimen. Therefore, here we removed it from the list of the Iranian species.
