In a moss and lichen sample collected on the Polish coast, new population of Macrobiotus sottilei was found. Given that original description M. based solely morphology observed under light microscopy measurements few individuals, we provide, by means integrative taxonomy, revisional note this species. We present comprehensive set morphometric morphological data from scanning electron analysis together with nucleotide sequences three nuclear (18S rRNA, 28S ITS-2) one mitochondrial (COI) DNA...
In sediment samples collected from three distinct European locations (United Kingdom, France, Poland), populations of Dactylobiotus parthenogeneticus were found. The original description this species was based solely on the morphology observed with light microscopy and later supplemented by some additional SEM data buccal apparatus DNA sequences 18S rRNA COI. Here we provide an updated means integrative taxonomy. comprises a comprehensive set morphometric morphological scanning as well...
In this paper, we describe a new tardigrade species, Richtersius tertius sp. n., from Greece. The description is based on morphological and morphometric analysis using light scanning electron microscopy as well genetic four molecular markers (DNA sequences of three nuclear, i.e., 18S rRNA, 28S ITS-2 one mitochondrial COI fragment). Morphological differences, together with comparisons, provide independent verifications n. species to science. Phenotypically, the taxon differs coronifer...
