Remarks. Entomobrya acreanensis sp. nov. resembles E. albitrigona sp. nov. by densely pigmented body in some specimens ( Figs 36A–D View FIGURE 36 , 42A–B View FIGURE 42 ), Ant IV apical bulb absent ( Fig. 43A View FIGURE 43 ), prelabral chaetae smooth and bifurcate ( Figs 37C View FIGURE 37 – 43C View FIGURE 43 ), labial papilla E l.p. conical ( Figs 38B View FIGURE 38 , 44B View FIGURE 44 ), overall dorsal macrochaetotaxy pattern ( Figs 39A–C View FIGURE 39 , 45A–C View FIGURE 45 ) and mucro proximal tooth larger than the distal one ( Figs 41D View FIGURE 41 , 47D View FIGURE 47 ). However, E. acreanensis sp. nov. sometimes has a dark violet body, except for the Abd IV anteriorly depigmented (or it can be weakly pigmented) ( Figs 36A–D View FIGURE 36 ), while E. albitrigona sp. nov. has a depigment triangle-shaped region extendend from Th II to Abd IV anterior part ( Figs 42A–B View FIGURE 42 ). Entomobrya acreanensis sp. nov. also differs by 2–3 projections on labral papillae (1 in E. albitrigona sp. nov.) ( Figs 38A View FIGURE 38 , 44A View FIGURE 44 ), unguiculus III ai lamella acuminate and pe serrated (ai slightly truncate and pe smooth in E. albitrigona sp. nov.) ( Figs 40E View FIGURE 40 , 46E View FIGURE 46 ), and manubrial plate with 4–7 ciliate chaetae and 2 psp (7–10 chaetae and 3 psp in E. albitrigona sp. nov.) ( Figs 41C View FIGURE 41 , 47C View FIGURE 47 ).
The head dorsal chaetotaxy of E. acreanensis sp. nov. differs by ‘ An ’ and ‘ M ’ series with 7–10 and 4–5 mac, respectively (6–7 and 2–3 in E. albitrigona sp. nov.) ( Figs 37D View FIGURE 37 , 43D View FIGURE 43 ), Th II a, m and p series with 7–8, 5–8 and 16–19 mac respectively (Th II 3–7, 5–6 and 12–19 mac in E. albitrigona sp. nov.), and Abd IV with 14–21 inner and 22–26 outer mac (15–20 inner and 10–13 outer in E. albitrigona sp. nov.) ( Figs 39A–C View FIGURE 39 , 45A–C View FIGURE 45 ). Other differences between these species are summarized in Table 2.
