Figure 3

3D models created using X-ray microtomography show the differences in leg shape between the newly discovered Acicnemis ryukyuana and Acicnemis postica.

The shape of the second segment of the leg is evenly curved in Acicnemis postica (A and B), but wavy along the inner edge in the new species Acicnemis ryukyuana (C and D).
