This is a new morphotype, not listed in
Brooks
et al
. (2007)
.
Antennal ratio (length of basal segment/ length of flagellum) ˂ 2.5 (
Fig. 14
). Pecten epipharyngis consists of seven, weakly sclerotized scales. Labral lamellae absent. Premandible with 7–9 teeth (
Fig. 16
). Mandibular seta interna consists of 9–15 branches (
Fig. 15
). All teeth of mentum unicolored, black, fourth to seventh lateral teeth are hardly visible in unflatten mentum (
Fig. 14
).
Remarks: Subfossil remains have been recorded only in three lakes. In the Tatra Mts. lakes, the morphotype contains a single species,
