discussion
Remarks: This largely Holarctic species (McInnes 1994 a) was re-described by Binda & Pilato (1992). Comparing specimens from Rancagua, Chile (Ramazzotti 1962 a) Binda & Pilato (1992) ascribed the Chilean samples to a new species (see: M. ramazzotti below). This suggests that all South American Minibiotus furcatus records should be verified.
