Treatment

Aneurus angustus Bergroth, 1914: 96 . STS, 4 3: Insula Réunion; MNHN

Aneurus mauritianus Mamet, 1957: 47 (synonymized by Hoberlandt, 1963: 129). ST(S): Mauritius. Breviscutaneurus angustus Heiss, 1990:98

Distr.: La Réunion; Mauritius ( Mamet, 1957, Heiss, 1990)

Ref.: Hoberlandt, 1957 (key, fig.3); 1963: 129 (distr.); Heiss, 1990 (tax.)

Note: This species is listed as Aneurus ( Kormilev & Froeschner, 1987: 24) View in CoL however fig. 124 of a 3 paratype ( Hoberlandt, 1957: 106) shows a short scutellum characteristic for this genus. This was already suspected by Jacobs 1986: 24 and later formally assigned to Breviscutaneurus ( Heiss, 1990).
