WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 10 years ago

Abstract - A second species of Draculoides, D. bramstokeri sp. nov., is described from coastal caves of Barrow Island and Cape Range, Western Australia. The species differs from D. vinei (Harvey) in the shape and setation of the male flagellum and the presence of a female gonopod. The diagnoses of Draculoides and D. vinei are emended. Both species included in the genus are cavernicoles.
