Remarks
- Systematics: Salicicola davatchi differs from other species of the genus by the round shape (not deltoid) of pygidium, the weak extent of the perianal plate and the small number and the particular structure of the dorsal tubular macropores (Balachowsky & Kaussari, 1951).
- Structure: Female scale rectangular, more or less convex. Exuviae pale yellow. Adult female elongate, nearly oval (Balachowsky & Kaussari, 1951). Slide-mounted adult female elongate oval; medial surface of venter spiculate. Antennae each with 2 setae. Anterior spiracles each associated with 1 disc pore. Pygidium sub-semicircular, without lobes or plates; pygidial margins denticulate, with short setae on margin. Anal opening surrounded by large sclerotized areas; pygidial dorsum also with 2 small submarginal chitinous patches on each side. Dorsal ducts short and narrow, numbering 3 on each side of pygidium. Ventral ducts absent. Second-instar female: Slide-mounted second-instar female broadly oval. Antennae each with 4 setae. Anterior spiracles each associated with 2 disc pores. Pygidium with lobes represented by small prominences only; plates absent. Dorsal ducts present on thorax and abdominal segments. (Moghaddam & Watson, 2021)
