Table 1 in Eventually tested: Phylogenetic position of " Testechiniscus " meridionalis (Murray, 1906) (Heterotardigrada) revealed

Table 1 List of newly found populations of Echiniscus meridionalis stat. rev. from King George Island (South Shetland Islands). Types of analyses: (PCM) imaging and morphometry in PCM, (SEM) imaging in SEM, (DNA) DNA sequencing. Number in each analysis indicates how many specimens were utilised in a given method (a – adults, j – juveniles, l – larvae).
