Treatment

I have found 20 specimens and four eggs from MR and LF samples. Animal’s and egg’s descriptions corresponded to the original one ( Guil, Guidetti and Machordóm 2007). Eight specimens showed ocular spots, while in 12 specimens it was not possible to determine their presence or absence. Mean body size was 426 μm (SD 129), range 208 to 554 μm. This species was collected at one sampling site (Table 3), the type locality, but in both season’s expeditions.
