Angola: 1, Democratic Republic of Congo: 1, Libya: 1, Morocco: 2, Republic of South Africa: 1, Tunisia: 2; total: 8. Remarks. This member of the tuberculatus -group has a history of major taxonomic confusion with I. bakonyiensis (now the junior synonym), but was re-described from a Richters’ 1905 slide in the Senckenberg Museum (Germany) by Dastych (1990). Nevertheless, the literature-based, supposed, cosmopolitan distribution (McInnes 1994), requires major taxonomic re-evaluation of all specimens attributed to I. sattleri., Published as part of Kaczmarek, Łukasz, 2017, Annotated zoogeography of non-marine Tardigrada.
