Remarks. Limnesia baderi is known from Papua New Guinea and Papua Province (Indonesia), and is reported here for the first time from Vogelkop . Very likely a species of hyporheic habitats, considering it’s pale yellow colour and the absence of eyes. Imamura (1983) considered it also an interstitial species.
