From editor or global species database
Editor's comment Regarded as a synonym of C. setosa by Augener, probably correctly for the subsequent Arctic record of Bidenkap, but less certain for the type of Möbius's species. A modern examination of this in literature has not been found, althought Hartmann-Schröder (1996) includes the name in the synonymy of C. setosa. Several Chaetozone species probably occur in the area of original collection [details]Type locality Kiel Canal, Germany, fide Hartman catalogue [details]
