(Iharos 1963) Macrobiotus cf. occidentalis John Murr., 1910 (Jerez & Narváez 2001) Terra typica : British Columbia (Canada, North America) Argentina: • 41 ° 58 ′S, 71 ° 29 ′W; 1,170 m asl : Rio Negro Province, El Bolsón, Piltriquitron Mt., mosses on bases and barks of trees in Nothofagus pumilio forest. Iharos (1963) • 41 ° 59 ′S, 71 ° 31 ′W; 360 m asl : Rio Negro Province, El Bolsón, foot of Piltriquitron Mt., mosses under saxicolous plants on the extremely arid cliffs of promontory. Iharos (1963) Brazil: • 09° 50 ′S, 50 ° 58 ′W : Undefined locality in Brazil. Murray & Wailes (1913) Colombia: • 07°07′N, 73 °02′W; 1,970–2,010 m asl : Santander Department, El Diviso Natural Reserve, Pine forest ( Pinus patula ) and secondary forest, mosses ( Lyperodon tomentosus and Sematophyllum insularum ). Jerez & Narváez (2001) Peru: • 14 ° 19 ′S, 69 ° 28 ′W; 7,000 ft asl/ 2,200 m asl: Puno Region, Sandia. Murray & Wailes (1913) Record numbers: Argentina: 2, Brazil: 1, Colombia: 1, Peru: 1; total: 5. Remarks: Macrobiotus occidentalis sensu lato has a largely Holarctic distribution (McInnes 1994 a) but with some southern hemisphere reports, which suggests a possible species complex. The South American record requires verification. : Published as part of Kaczmarek, Łukasz, Michalczyk, Łukasz & Mcinnes, Sandra J., 2015, Annotated zoogeography of non-marine Tardigrada.
