Echiniscus perarmatus Murray, 1907
Material.
Single adult female and a juvenile used for DNA sequencing (juvenile retrieved as a hologenophore on slide MU.001.23), larva on slide MU.001.01.
Remarks.
This pantropical species (
McInnes 1994
) will likely appear to be one of the most common members of
Echiniscidae
in tropical climates, providing that the conspecificity of populations originating from different continents is demonstrated (data in preparation).
Genus:
Pseudechiniscus
Thulin, 1911
Subgenus:
Meridioniscus
