Rhinoglena cf. frontalis Ehrenberg, 1853 Rhinoglena frontalis Ehrenberg 1853: 190 – Kutikova 1970: 504, Shiel 1995: 63 Notes. The identification raised some doubts because other representatives of the genus – Rhinoglena fertoeensis (Varga, 1929) and recently described Rh. kutikovae De Smet, 2008 – also inhabit East Antarctica, Bunger Hills oasis (Kutikova 1958, 1991, De Smet & Gibson 2008). Especially, we did not observe trophi of the collected Rhinoglena individuals; hence, we should determine the species as ‘ Rhinoglena cf. frontalis ’.
