Distribution in the Balkans. Greece : Karpathos Island ( type locality), Kyriaki Peninsula at Pigadia; bay at Pigadia, Pilés, Kyriaki and Mili, between Diafani and Olymbos, between Pigadia and Aperi, between Spoa and Mertonas, Despotiko Islet; Kasos Island ( Strasser 1967 , 1970 , 1974 ). World distribution. Endemic to the islands of Karpathos and Kasos, Dodecanese islands, Greece . Remarks. The only species of the unique subgenus Cerabrachyiulus Verhoeff, 1901 ; the only known Megaphyllum from these islands. It is almost the most frequent species on Karpathos Island ( Strasser 1970 ). In the database of Fauna Europea the subgenus Cerabrachyiulus is elevated to genus level ( Enghoff & Kime 2009 ), but at the same time it is shown as a synonym of Megaphyllum . Until a genus revision is completed we suggest the combination Megaphyllum mueggenburgi .
