Description

Approx 12mm long, deeply notched coxa 4, 70+ segments on Ant 1, 25 on Ant 2. This was the largest paramelita of 8 in a 40cm diameter pool. I later found more up stream and down stream of the pool. Upstream, the paramelita were in little cups of water as the stream flowed down a 1.5 sloping drop.
