Habitat

Remarks

See Proudlove (2011) for a discussion of the authorship of this species and the generic name Iacksoneuma .

The distinction between this species and B. bagnalli is not always entirely clear ( Blower 1986). Blower (1986) also pointed out the great similarity of B. herrioti Demange, 1962 with B. bradeae ( ssp. hussoni Schubart & Husson, 1936 ), and J.-P. Mauriès (unpublished) has confirmed the identity of the type specimens of B. herrioti with B. bradeae (J.-J. Geoffroy in litt.).
