Fig. 5 View FIGURE 5
Material examined. One specimen (slide No. 4524) from moss sample collected between Terranova Base and Campo Icaro (1990.12.27). As stressed in the description of the species ( Dastych et al. 1990), a light refracting unit is present at the base of all primary branches of the external claws ( Figs. 5 View FIGURE 5 A–C).
This species, a new record for Victoria Land, seems widespread across the Antarctic continent, with records for: Queen Maud Land ( Dastych et al. 1990; Tsujimoto et al. 2014), Ellsworth Land and Palmer Land ( Convey & McInnes 2005), Queen Elizabeth Land ( Hodgson et al. 2010), and the Mawson Coast ( Miller & Heatwole, 1995). Together with Diphascon sanae we found some specimens of Minibiotus vinciguerrae Binda & Pilato, 1992 .
