Description
Summary:69. Testechiniscus spitsbergensis (Scourfield, 1897) sensu lato [T] E. (E.) spitsbergenst Scourfield, 1897 (Claps & Rossi 1981) Terra typica : Svalbard (Spitsbergen) (Norway, Arctic Ocean) Argentina: • 43°10′S, 71°36′W; 350 m asl : Chubut Province, Rio Futaleufú, dry, mosses on rocks in the forest. Claps & Rossi (1981) • 48°47′S, 69°11′W : Undefined locality, Santa Cruz Province, Valle de la Florida, lichens on soil and mosses on rocks (2 samples). Rossi & Claps (1989) Record numbers: Argentina: 2; total: 2. Remarks: With the exception of the Argentine records, this species has a Holarctic distribution (McInnes 1994a); so we suggest that the records from South America should be re-examined.
