No published scientific name, and therefore fails WP:NSPECIES. This as well as Ptenothrix species 4 are ecomorphs that have been identified by the springtail hobbyist community but are as of yet unpublished in a scientific journal. Brendansoloughlin (talk) 02:31, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge with Ptenothrix - see also Ptenothrix species 4 deletion discussion. To my knowledge, these purported species have received no media or academic coverage, failing WP:GNG and WP:NSPECIES. They have been identified as distinct, but there is simply no published work on them with which to establish notability nor build a Wikipedia article. Seems that researchers are working on formal descriptions for these, hopefully to be published soon, but until we get a published description or WP:SIGCOV this ought to redirect to the genus article.
