Remarks
Lombardo and Umbriaco discuss the fact that the present specimen is parasitized by a horsehair worm (Nematomorpha) and justify, based on morphological features, that it is an intersexual individual, i.e., that it bears intermediate rather than sex-specific characteristics, especially the wings and ocelli (
Lombardo & Umbriaco 2011
).
