Abstract

Abstract We report the occurrence of the terrestrial isopod Miktoniscus medcofi from a fen in Real County, Texas, representing a new state record for the species as well as a western range extension for the genus. Morphologic characteristics closely conform to the species description and distinguish the Texas population from congeners. Miktoniscus medcofi ranges from New York to Texas and south to Veracruz, Mexico, but may represent multiple cryptic species or a species complex.
