TABLE 1. Meristic and morphometric data on the type series (11 specimens examined) of Notarius biffi. For paratypes counts, figures between brackets indicate number of specimens with each count. Holotype measurements are presented in millimeters, and percents of the standard length appear between brackets. Paratypes measurements are given as a range; total lengths and standard lengths are expressed in millimeters, the additional measurements are presented as percents of the standard length.
