<paragraph pageId="2" pageNumber="47">As with the two known males, the Schouten Island females are smaller than their Tasman Island counterparts: (51+2)-(59+1) rings, 1.5-2.3 mm midbody diameter from Schouten Island, (47+2)-(63+1) rings, 2.3-2.7 mm from Tasman Island. Further, the pseudoflagellum tip in the holotype male from Tasman Island is slightly longer, broader and more medially directed than the tip in the Schouten Island paratype. These are minor differences and I regard the two forms as conspecific.</paragraph>

I doubt that

Mesibov, 2017. The latter species is also the only iulomorphid known from Maria Island, halfway between Schouten and Tasman Islands (Fig. 3). I suspect that
<taxonomicName lsidName="A. insularis" pageId="2" pageNumber="47" rank="species" species="insularis">A. insularis</taxonomicName>
sp. n. will be found in future in coastal habitats along the east coast of the Tasmanian mainland, and possibly also on Maria Island.
