Platyseius nidus Pinchuk, 1972a : 67 (Synonymy by Bregetova, 1977a : 180 ). Lasioseius ( Cuspiacus ) confusus .— Christian & Karg, 2006 : 221 . TYPE DEPOSITORY: of L . confusus : not stated; of P . nidus : Institute of Zoology, Moldavian Academy of Sciences, Kishinau, Moldova . TYPE LOCALITY AND HABITAT : of L . confusus : Big Pool , Saint Agnes, Isles of Scilly, Cornwall, England , on roots of rushes; of P . nidus : Pash Kany , Moldova , in nest of Apodemus agrarius [Animalia: Muridae ]. NOTES : (a) Karg (1980: 348) considered Lasioseius berlesei (Oudemans) to be a senior synonym of L . confusus . We adopted the interpretation of Walter & Lindquist (1989: 2800), considering them to be distinct species; (b) some of the specimens reported as Lasioseius paucisetosus Westerboer by Lapina (1976a: 72) were suspected to be L . berlesei and L . confusus by Walter & Lindquist (1989: 2800).
