macilentus Humbert, 1893: 10 -14, pl. 2, fig. 2 (1-7) [ Polydesmus].

[Environs de Genève]. Unspecified series.

Humbert gave a description of his specimens under the name P. macilentus C.L. Koch, 1844 . Attems (1898: 446) recognized that Humbert’s specimens were not of this species, but placed the name P. macilentus Humbert in the synonymy of P. subintiger Latzel, 1884 rather than replacing it. The MHNG contains some 40 specimens in alcohol, in three jars, under the name Polydesmus subinteger macilentus . Two jars contain a label reading “ Polydesmus macilentus C.Koch (Type Humbert) env. Genève coll. Humbert”, apparently in Carl’s handwriting.

The first jar has a vial with some 15 ♀ specimens, the second a vial with some 10 ♂ and 15 ♀ specimens. The third jar contains one ♂ and three ♀ collected near Bex and they are not labelled as types.

A junior synonym of Propolydesmus testaceus (C.L. Koch, 1847)
