Remarks. Dastych (2016) has re-described I. tetradactyloides ( Richters, 1907b) as the junior synonym of I. asper ( Murray, 1906b) . Dastych (2016) noted that the Marcus (1936) had dropped the original Richters’ (1907b) figures in favour of figures based on his Ivory Coast ( Marcus 1933) and previously unpublished Hartz Mts., Germany ( Marcus 1936) specimens, which has influenced the understanding and interpretation of I. tetradactyloides of following tardigradologists.
