I found Ichthydium bifurcatum in July 2020 and in October 2022 in the Simmlried. In the first finding I could document the ventral view (s. fig. 2 a-c) and in the second finding the dorsal view (s. figs. 1 a-c, 3, 4 and 5). An important feature of this species, the split toes, was clearly visible in both specimens (s. figs. 2a and 6). In other characteristics described in the literature (s. diagnosis) I could find deviations. The cephalion of my specimens was rather umbrella-shaped (s. figs. 1a, 1c and 2a) and not rectangular. The dorsal cuticle was not naked but clearly ornamented on a diamond-shaped way (s. figs. 3 and 4). On the ventral side I could not observe any ornamentation or scales. The body shape of my specimens was not stocky, but rather slender and flexible. The lateral lobes of the head were reduced, but the head shape was elongated with parallel sides and not as broad as Preobrajenskaya drew it (s. drawing above). Despite these differences, especially concerning the shape of the cephalion, I believe that the assignment Ichthydium bifurcatum is correct, because there is no other species in the genus Ichthydium with split toes. Since this species has been found and described only rarely (in Poland and Russia near Moscow) little is known about the variability of the species.
