alone, the more so as the mouthparts being unmodified, as is sometimes the case in troglobionts, and the antennae and legs relatively short, are certainly not enough for conferring the species the status of a troglobiont. Only direct biological observations will allow for this to be evaluated unequivocally. Even though epigean sampling was conducted on the same day near the cave entrance, with no additional material of

revealed, this species was only found inside the cave in the deepest zones. Isolation in the hypogean environment, combined with certain presumably troglomorphic traits such as reduced body pigmentation and a quite fragile body with thin teguments, seems to be evidence of a neotroglobiont status of this species.
