Ploimida:Trichotriidae
Original Identification: Trichotria cornuta  Myers, 1938
Locality: Sphagnum bog, Gravelly Run, Atlantic Co.
Country, State/Province: USA , New Jersey
Collected: 9 October 1922  by F.J. Myers

The taxonomic status of this species needs clarification, it may be a synonym of T. tetractis (Ehrenberg).

Trichotria eukosmeta  Myers, 1934
Catalog Number: ANSP 224
Ploimida:Trichotriidae
Original Identification: Trichotria eukosmeta  Myers, 1934
Locality: Union Lake, Millville, Cumberland Co.
Country, State/Province: USA , New Jersey
Collected: 10 October 1934  by F.J. Myers
Habitat: Hygropsammon.
Specimens: 3 females
Preparator: F.J. Myers
Remarks: This preparation is designated "paratype" in card file, but not mentioned as such in the publication (Myers, 1934 d: 6, figs. 13,14). The specimens, however are not from the published type locality (cf. holotype ANSP 1896) and were collected only 2 months before the species description was published. According to Myers (1934 d: 6) the species was only collected in the type locality and has not been found again. The specimens on this slide thus can not come from the type series.
