Attems (1902) described Julus (Microiulus) merontis from several localities in Crete. This species
remains uncertain (Felesaki et al. 2010); it is definitely not a species of Xestoiulus (=Microiulus) but
rather seems to belong in Brachyiulus. Since B. stuxbergi is the only Brachyiulus known from Crete, we
tentatively suggest that J. merontis may be a synonym of B. stuxbergi.
