This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article KACZMAREK, Ł UKASZ (2003): New records of and key to Tardigrada from Costa Rica. Zootaxa 177 (1): 1-4, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.177.1.1, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.177.1.1
Abstract
Moss samples collected near the research station “La Selva” on the edge of Costa Rican tropical rain forest has yielded three species of Tardigrada: Hypsibius pallidus Thulin, Astatumen trinacriae (Arcidiacono) and Macrobiotus polyopus Marcus. Another three unidentified species from the genus Macrobiotus were also found. All identified species are new for Costa Rica. A key to the identification of all known species from Costa Rica is given.
