Trechus scotti Jeannel, 1936 View in CoL

Trechus (s. str.) scotti Jeannel, 1936: 208 View in CoL ; locus typicus: Mt Chillalo, alt. approx. 4000 m.

Trechus scotti View in CoL – Ortuño & Novoa 2011: 137.

Type material

Not studied. Identification of this unique species is based on its original description including figures of habitus and genital characters.

Additional material

Not available.

Identification

Easily recognizable due to the remarkable shape of the aedeagal median lobe which is markedly funnelshaped, widening near apex ( Jeannel 1936: 209). Within the Trechus fauna of Mt Chillalo this species is also easily distinguished externally due to the head with small flat eyes and long tempora.

Distribution

Probably endemic to Mt Chillalo; the holotype specimen was found at an altitude of approximately 4000 m ( Jeannel 1936).
