A newly identified tardigrade species from China, Pilatobius nuominensis sp. nov., belongs to the group of species with cuticle of the dorsal and lateral caudal region with evident irregular polygonal sculpture. Nucleotide sequences of two nuclear (18S rRNA, 28S rRNA) and one mitochondrial (COI) DNA fragments of the new species are provided, which allows an independent verification of the taxonomic status of the new species. This is the first record of the genus Pilatobius in the Great Hinggan Mountains.
中国新鉴定的缓步动物新种,诺敏帕拉托毕斯(Pilatobius nuominensis)sp. nov.,属于尾部背面和侧面具明显不规则多角形刻纹的种团。提供了新种的两个核(18S rRNA、28S rRNA)和一个线粒体(COI)DNA 片段的核苷酸序列,这使得对新种的分类地位进行独立验证成为可能。这是大兴安岭地区帕拉托毕斯属的首次记录。
