Arthrotardigrada with a complete set of cephalic cirri and three pairs of clavae. Body covered with five thin plates: A cephalic plate, a scapular plate (segmental plate I) which bears two long cirrophores with the primary clavae and cirri A, two other plates (segmental plates II and III), and the caudal plate (segmental plate IV). Median cirrus, internal and external cirri, with the secondary and tertiary clavae, located on the cephalic plate. Stylet supports absent. Legs non digitate, lacking true telescopy. Three claws on all legs attached to the tarsus with a dorsal basal membrane. Claws of different length: two longer, on the middle of the tarsus, and a short lateral one. A very short and thin dorsal bristle32 on the two medial claws. Sense organs on every leg. Cirrus E with a coarse accordion-shaped articulation. 1.5.1 Neoarctus de Zio Grimaldi, D’Addabbo Gallo & Morone De Lucia, 1992 (Figs 9 D, 10G) Generic diagnosis as that of the family.

Batillipes adriaticus Grimaldi de Zio, Morone De Lucia, D'Addabbo Gallo & Grimaldi 1979
No full textBatillipes adriaticus Grimaldi de Zio, Morone De Lucia, D’Addabbo Gallo & Grimaldi, 1979 Material examined PORTUGAL: 1 ♀ collected at Portinho da Arrábida Beach, mounted in PVA (slide C. IX- 71), and 14 specimens (9 ♀♀, 1 ♂, 3 juveniles and 1 four-toed larva, all mounted in glycerol), collected at Vasco da Gama Beach (slides C. IX- 75, C. IX- 80 – C. IX- 91). Remarks The specimens clearly correspond to the original description of Grimaldi de Zio et al. (1979). The main characteristic of this species is its dorsal cuticle sculpture constituted by large pillars, appearing as large tubercles (diameter about 2–3 µm); ventrally the cuticle exhibits the fine punctuation as do the majority of Batillipes species. Cephalic appendages have a lance-like tip and papillary secondary clavae are present. Between legs III and IV, an acute sculptured conical body projection is present. Lateral body projections between the first three pairs of legs are not referred to by Grimaldi de Zio et al. (1979). However, in some Portuguese specimens, small blunt ventro-lateral body projections are visible. The caudal appendage is a long spine inserted on a cylindrical base. Middle toes (3 and 4) on feet of legs IV are of similar length. Sensory organs are present on all legs, considerably long on legs IV. The specific characters of the species: dorsal sculpture, conical lateral body projection between legs III–IV and spine-like caudal appendage are already present in the four-toed larva. Distribution Up to now, this species had only been reported from the Mediterranean Basin (Adriatic Sea, Ionian Sea and Tyrrhenian Sea, see Kaczmarek et al. 2015). This is its first record for the Atlantic Ocean. Associated species Batillipes phreaticus and H. greveni.Published as part of Santos, Erika, Rubal, Marcos, Veiga, Puri, da Rocha, Clélia M.

Record numbers (FAO classification): FAO 27: 2, FAO 37: 4; total: 6. Remarks: This intertidal-subtidal species is known mainly from the Mediterranean region although it has also been reported from the deep subtidal zone in the Atlantic Ocean. However, the deep water specimens of both Kristensen & Neuhaus (1999) and Hansen et al. (2001) were reported as A. cf. physophorus, with the suggestion that these specimens from the Faroe Bank (Atlantic Ocean) could belong to a new species. This is an interstitial species found mainly in sand or gravel.Published as part of Kaczmarek, Łukasz, Bartels, Paul J., Roszkowska, Milena & Nelson, Diane R., 2015, The Zoogeography of Marine Tardigrada, pp. 1-189 in Zootaxa 4037 (1) on pages 120-121, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4037.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/23351
