Diphascon sp. gr. pingue (Figs. 47, 54– 56) Sample 2 (1 specimen). The single specimen found is most similar to Diphascon dastychi Pilato & Binda, 1999 in the proportions of bucco­pharyngeal apparatus (macroplacoid line ptd value – 54.78, buccal tube length is about 44 % of the total length of the bucco­pharyngeal tube), but differs in having slightly shorter outer claws ( ptd value for outer claws of legs III – 43.48, legs IV – 47.83) (Pilato & Binda 1999). . Doryphoribius sp. 50 — habitus, 51 — bucco­pharyngeal apparatus, ventral, 52 — claws of the I pair of legs, 53 —claws of the IV pair of legs. Diphascon sp. 54 — habitus, 55 — bucco­pharyngeal apparatus, 56 — claws of the IV pair of legs. : Published as part of Tumanov, Denis V., 2005, Notes on the Tardigrada of Thailand, with a description of Macrobiotus alekseevi sp. nov.
