TABLE 1. Measurements [in µm] and pt values of selected morphological structures of Isohypsibius condorcanquii sp. nov. mounted in Hoyer’s medium (N—number of specimens/structures measured, RANGE refers to the smallest and the largest structure among all measured specimens; SD—standard deviation,?—trait oriented unsuitably for measurement).
