Distribution. Sardinian endemic.

Notes. Collected with the Berlese method in both Quercus ilex woods and Mediterranean maquis. The specimens are still under study and could belong either to a new species or to Tychus anophthalmus Reitter, 1882 , a species described from “ Sardinien ” from a single specimen and since then never collected (cf. Poggi & Sabella 2006).
