discussion
Remarks: Species of the Macrobiotus furciger - group are reported from localities throughout the world but many require verification according to modern literature (for more details see Binda & Rebecchi 1992 and Binda et al. 2005). Binda et al. (2005), reduced the range of Macrobiotus furciger sensu stricto to the maritime Antarctic and sub-Antarctic South Georgia, suggesting the South American records require confirmation.
