Specific identification

Following the logic used in the previous species association, it is concluded that the remaining larvae from Pool 2 ( Fig. 1d View FIGURE 1 ) must be associated with P. nitens . Adults of P. nitens were collected in Pool 1 ( Figs 1e, 1f View FIGURE 1 ), which also produced this type of larva (see material examined), supporting the proposed association.
