Description
(11) Pseudocandona insculpta (G.W. Müller, 1900)
and Pseudocandona vasconica (Margalef, 1946)
The original description of Candona neglecta var. vasconica mentions a small distal “appendage” on the anterior side of the penultimate A2 segment, which obviously is the reduced G2-claw that characterizes the female antennae of Ps. insculpta and Ps. compressa. The shallow valve pits reported by Margalef (1946) tend to indicate that he either dealt with adults of Ps. insculpta or with late juveniles of Ps. compressa. The species is here transferred to Pseudocandona (see above) and tentatively listed as a synonym of Pseudocandona insculpta (G.W. Müller, 1900).
