Litonotus fasciola ?

#1 Post by D0c » Thu Feb 25, 2021 8:06 am

Found these critters in my sample yesterday.

I have checked all my identification websites and have come to this conclusion. I can see especially in the first video a CV in the rear tail, and two macronuclei in the middle of the body, highly flexible with a tinge of pink to the body, so this leads me to a Litonotus species.

There was 5 of these critters in the sample I checked.

I think it is a Litonotus fasciola.

What do you guys think?
