Remarks
- Systematics: T. balachowskyi is easily distinguished from T. bipindensis by the round shape of L1, the strong development of L2, the reduced number of circumgenital glands and their transverse layout and by the presence of marginal-thoracic glandular tubercules (Matile Ferrero, 1982).
- Biology: Trischnaspis balachowskyi was found associated with Ischnaspis longirostris and Gynandraspis gabonensis (Matile Ferrero, 1982).
- General Remarks: Best description and illustration by Matile Ferrero (1982).
