Abstract: Enchodelus laevis Thorne, 1939 Enchodelus (Rotundus) laevis Thorne, 1939 (Ahmad & Jairajpuri, 1980); Ahmad and Jairajpuri (1980) BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8144936 Enchodelus knuppenburgensis Altherr in Altherr & Delamare-Deboutteville, 1972; Altherr and Delamare-Deboutteville (1972) BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10723432 Enchodelus knuppenburgensis; Eliava and Eliashvily (1990): 59 BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.11003031 Enchodelus laevis Thorne, 1939; Thorne (1939) BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.11003143 Enchodelus laevis; Eliava and Eliashvily (1990): 59, 99 BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.11003031 Enchodelus laevis; Brzeski (1992) BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8122483 Enchodelus laevis; Peña-Santiago (2021 b): 207 BLR: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.11194193 Distribution Originally recovered from Nearctic: USA (type habitat: fresh water stream bank - Thorne (1939) / Altherr and Delamare-Deboutteville (1972)); subsequently, this species is also recorded in Eastern Palearctic: Korea (moss - Brzeski (1992)). Taxon discussion This species was briefly described from the USA by Thorne (1939) on the basis of one female specimen. After that, Altherr, in Altherr and Delamare-Deboutteville (1972), studied one male from the USA too that was described as E. knuppenburgensis, very close to E. laevis in its general morphology. Thus, Altherr suggested that his male might be conspecific with the E. laevis female. Brzeski (1992) described five females and one male specimens of E. laevis from Korea and regarded both species as identical.
