Goniomma blanci

Distribution based on Regional Taxon Lists
Palaearctic Region: France, Iberian Peninsula, Spain.

Morphology
Castro et al. (2016) described a stridulatory structure in this species. They used SEM photographs to discern the details they reported

The striation is somewhat thicker than in Goniomma hispanicum (1.10 μm in G. blanci and 0.80 μm in G. hispanicum). Pillars are conspicuous with many teeth on their surface and with the base showing a cell-shaped pattern
