Table 7 in Two new species of the genus Milnesium Doyere, 1840 (Tardigrada, Apochela, Milnesiidae) from Madagascar

Table 7. Measurements and pt values of selected morphological structures of females of Milnesium wrightae sp. nov. mounted in Hoyer’s medium (N - number of specimens/structures measured, RANGE refers to the smallest and the largest structure among all measured specimens; SD - standard deviation, pt - ratio of the length of a given structure to the length of the buccal tube expressed as a percentage).
