Trichorhina guanophila Souza-Kuryı 1993

Distribution

Lapa do Convento caveı Campo Formosoı state of Bahia ( Souza-Kury 1993; Campos-Filho et al. 2014).

Remarks

Bastos-Pereira et al. (2017) mentioned that T. guanophila lacks troglomorphic traits andı thereforeı the species should be considered troglophilic instead of troglobitic. Souza-Kury (1993) mentioned that this species has reduced eyes and body pigmentı typical troglomorphic traits. As mentioned in Campos-Filho et al. (2014) ı these characters can also represent traits of endogeous lifestyleı which could misinterpret their subterranean classification. More surveys in- and outside cave will clarify the subterranean classification of this species.
