Hi, I have some 4-5 different spcies of Campodeidae in etanol in my collection, really interested if anyone has a key to at least genera. What are the key charaters? Head? Antennae? Legs? Genitals? Size? Is the method: putting them to NaOH 10% overnight suitable for examining them? I've made some photos of a specimen in NaOH overnight and it seems to be OK. But I don't see anythingrsembling genitalia. Thanks in advance. |

I only know they are very difficult, I think this will not suit, but here´s the first recording in Europe of a species of the family Projapygidae http://www.naturamuseo.org/documents/Projapygido.jpg - Another articles: http://www.naturamuseo.org get to the left menu and click "Investigación" and then "Publicaciones", you´ll find some of Diplura by Alberto Sendra (specialist) among others Good luck!
