(11) Pseudocandona vasconica ( Margalef, 1946) comb. nov.

Candona vasconica ( Margalef, 1946) , first described as Candona neglecta var. vasconica from northwestern Spain and thus far unrecorded elsewhere, was elevated to species rank by Margalef (1953). Only females were found. The relatively small carapace size (females: 0.91–0.93 mm) and the carapace shape in lateral view ( Margalef 1946: pl. 2:1) clearly point towards a species of the genus Pseudocandona . The species is transferred to this genus and is also tentatively listed as a synonym of Pseudocandona insculpta (G.W. Müller, 1900) (see below).
