F. cribellata ( Fairmaire & Germain, 1859: 353) (Choleva) View in CoL ; Jeannel, 1936: 158 comb. (not stated as taxonomic change), 1962: 519; Szymczakowski, 1965: 246; Gnaspini, 1999: 378; Salgado, 2005b: 214, 2006: 102, 2017a: 82. No information about types in original description;? Syntype (s) (sex and number of specimens, and depository, not given in Jeannel, 1936, who states he did not examine the species) in MNNC [in Jeannel, 1962]. Type locality: Concepción, [Concepción Province], Chile. Distribution: Argentina: Río Negro (also f. edwardsi View in CoL ), Santa Cruz (also obscurus View in CoL ), and Tierra del Fuego Provinces; Chile: Aisén, Cautín, Chiloé, Coihaique, Concepción, Llanquihue (also f. edwardsi View in CoL ), Magallanes (also f. edwardsi View in CoL ), Malleco, Ñuble, Osorno, Palena, Quillota, Talca, Tierra del Fuego (also falklandica View in CoL ), and Valdivia Provinces; Falkland Islands ( falklandica View in CoL ).

= F. falklandica View in CoL ; Hatch, 1928: 208 comb.; Jeannel, 1936: 158.

= Dasypelates obscurus Pic, 1928: 2 View in CoL ; Newton, 1998: 167 comb. (to Chiliopelates View in CoL ); Gnaspini, 1999: 378 syn. Syntypes (sex and number of specimens not given, in Bruch and Pic collections, in original description) in MNHN and MACN [in Gnaspini, 1999]. Type locality: “ Argentina ” [Valle Tunel, Gob. Santa Cruz, as in 3 female specimens labeled “types” from MACN examined by Gnaspini, 1999].

= F. falklandica edwardsi Jeannel, 1936: 158, 1957: 54 , 1962: 519; Szymczakowski, 1965: 246 syn. (not stated as taxonomic change; given as “ F. cribellata edwardsi Jeannel, 1936 ”, based on the synonymy of F. falklandica View in CoL with F. cribellata View in CoL by Jeannel, 1962).? Syntypes (3 specimens, sex not given in original description) in BMNH or MNHN (although Jeannel used to designate a holotype, the original description does not do that and cites both collections as depository for the specimens seen; Szymczakowski, 1965 does not cite types). Type locality: Bariloche, Río Negro Province, Argentina.
