Macrobiotus sp.

Material examined: Two specimens (slides CII-90 and CII-91), deposited in the collection of P. Fontoura at the Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto, Portugal.

Remarks: The specimens belong to the ‘ hufelandi group’. However, the absence of eggs prevents a positive specific diagnosis.

Paramacrobiotus gerlachae (Pilato, Binda & Lisi, 2004)

Material examined: 29 specimens (5 in simplex stage) and eight eggs (slides CIII 1-to CIII 36), deposited in the collection of P. Fontoura at the Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto, Portugal.

Remarks: The characteristics of the specimens perfectly fit the original description by Pilato et al. (2004) and additional information on cap-like terminal portion of the egg processes by Michalczyk et al. (2006). Up to now Paramacrobiotus gerlachae was reported only from the Seychelles.
