description: Table 2. Measurements and pt values of selected morphological structures of individuals of Xerobiotus reductus, Xerobiotus litus, Xerobiotus arenosum and Pseudohexapodibius degenerans (N, number of specimens/structures measured; pt, ratio of the length of a given structure to the length of the buccal tube expressed as a percentage; Range, the smallest and the largest structure among all measured specimens; SD, standard deviation).
