Siro is a genus of mite harvestmen in the family Sironidae with 7 described species (6 extant, 1 extinct).[1][2] All are found in Europe.[1][3][4]
Description
The genus Siro was described by Latreille, 1795 with the type species Siro rubens Latreille, 1802 only later designated (by subsequent monotypy).[5]
Species
These 7 species (including one extinct species) belong to the genus Siro: (after Giribet & Shear, 2010)[5]
- Siro carpaticus Rafalski, 1956 – Poland , Slovakia
- Siro crassus Novak & Giribet, 2006 – Slovenia
- Siro franzi Karaman & Raspotnig, 2022 – Austria
- Siro ozimeci Karaman, 2022 – Croatia
- Siro rubens Latreille, 1804 – France
- Siro valleorum Chemini, 1990 – Italy
- [Also see † Siro platypedibus Dunlop & Giribet, 2003 (fossil, Bitterfield amber from Bitterfeld, Germany )]
Many species once placed in Siro have since transferred to other genera, including:
To Arhesiro:
- Siro clousi Giribet & Shear, 2010
- Siro sonoma Shear, 1980
To Holosiro:
- Siro acaroides (Ewing, 1923)
- Siro calaveras Giribet & Shear, 2010
- Siro shasta Giribet & Shear, 2010
To Neosiro:
- Siro boyerae Giribet & Shear, 2010
- Siro exilis Hoffman, 1963
- Siro kamiakensis (Newell, 1943)
