Mecyclothorax manina Liebherr 2013

This was the sole specimen collected on the actual summit of Pito Hiti, 2110 m elevation. It was found via pyrethrin fogging of moss-covered vegetation. Only 30 m lower in elevation, the same collecting technique resulted in specimens of Mecyclothorax papau, Mecyclothorax everardi, Mecyclothorax pitohitiensis, Mecyclothorax hoeahiti sp. n., and Mecyclothorax paraglobosus Perrault.
