Description
Echiniscus bigranulatus Richters, 1908
This species exhibits a restricted distribution, consisting of South and Central America according to Michalczyk & Kaczmarek (2006), with it being widely distributed in Argentina (in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Misiones, Corrientes, Entre Ríos, Tucumán, Salta, Río Negro, Santa Cruz, and Tierra del Fuego) (Claps et al., 2008). Previously in a review of tardigrade distribution, McInnes (1994) cited its presence in Europe, Africa, Indonesia, and New Zealand.
