Nebela aliciae Mitchell & Lara, 2012

Diagnosis: The shell is wide pyriform, with a lateral keel about 5 µm wide, laterally compressed, with a small lateral pore on each side. The test is composed of small oval particles likely obtained from preys (i.e. euglyphid testate amoebae). The aperture is oval, linear.

Dimensions: Shell length 104—115 µm; width 76—93 µm; width of aperture 24—27 µm (n = 7).

Habitat: Dry mosses, Sphagnum.

Geographical distribution: Costa Rica, Bulgaria.

Remarks: This species resembles Nebela tincta ssp. galeata, which is larger. However, the measurements of N. alicae are based on seven shells. It is well possible that shells in other populations have larger or smaller dimensions.
