were kept alive in laboratory conditions for three days, in which sparse interactions between specimens were observed. Workers moved slowly through the terrarium, with occasionally slowpaced antennation and showing thanatosis when disturbed. Unfortunately, all the conducted “cafeteria” experiments failed and specimens did not accept any items offered. Similarly, part of the type-series was kept alive in laboratory conditions for several weeks, consistently ignoring live prey dropped inside the terrarium, but sometimes accepting freshly-killed adult fruit flies.
