| Summary: | 10. Echiniscus bigranulatus Richters, 1908 sensu lato [T] [m] Echiniscus bigranulatus Richters. (Heinis 1928) Echiniscus bigranulatus (Iharos 1969a) Echiniscus bigranulatus Richters, 1907 (Middleton 2003) Terra typica : Argentina (South America) Botswana: • 24°25′S, 25°31′E; 1,150 m asl: Kweneng District, Molepolole, lichen on tree. Middleton (2003) Cameroon: • 04°57′N, 09°56′E; 800 m asl: Littoral Region, Kongsamba [Nkongsamba], moss on tree. Iharos (1969a) Republic of South Africa: • 30°34′S, 22°56′E: Undefined locality. Heinis (1928) Record numbers. Botswana: 1, Cameroon: 1, Republic of South Africa: 1; total: 3. Remarks. This bona fide species belongs to the Neotropical and Antarctic bigranulatus group but is easily mistaken for other siblings (see: Michalczyk & Kaczmarek 2006a, 2007). All records prior to 2006 require confirmation, while the three uncertain records from Africa require re-examination and confirmation.
