Summary:Bertolanius weglarskae (Dastych, 1972) (Figure 2 A–E) Locality. Streymoy: “Sornfelli”, spring with Mniumbryum sp. 4.6ºC, altitude 560 m; “Við Áir”, homothermic spring 12ºC, altitude 50 m (sample collected in 1981 and again in 2001: temp. 11.2ºC, moss and vegetation, probably further downstream). Eysturoy: “Varmakelda”, homothermic spring, 18ºC, altitude 15 m. In vicinity of “Varmakelda”, moss in rivulet, altitude 73 m. Summit of Vaðhorn, moss and lichen, altitude 726 m. Vágoy: “Oyrargjógv”, wet moss on cliffside, altitude 5 m. Specific diagnosis. Body length 600–650 µm (two specimens measured)—much larger than the type material from Tatra Mountains. Small black eyes present. The trumpet-shaped buccal tube (Figs. 2 B and D) rather short and wide (63 µm long and 15 µm wide, in animal of 650 µm). Buccal cavity with a broad band (2nd band) of 5–6 rows of infrabuccal teeth (mucrones or rounded teeth) and a single row (3rd band) of infrabuccal teeth or ridges (infrabuccal baffles or transverse ridges).
