REDISCOVERY OF ECHINISCUS RUFOVIRIDIS DU BOIS-RAYMOND MARCUS 1944 (HETEROTARDIGRADA, ECHINISCIDAE): NEW CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF ITS MORPHOLOGY, BIOECOLOGY AND DISTRIBUTION

Numerous specimens of Echiniscus rufoviridis (Heterotardigrada, Echiniscidae) were recorded and studied from urban localities in Argentina. Since the first description of this species by <A HREF="#DuBois-Raymond">Du Bois-Raymond Marcus in 1944</A> on Brazilian specimens, it had...
