A new soil pseudoscorpion, Roncus ursi n. sp., from Western Serbia (Neobisiidae, Pseudoscorpiones)

A new species of the pseudoscorpion genus Roncus L. Koch (Neobisiidae) from Serbia (Kulina, Mt. Medvednik) is described and its diagnostic characters are illustrated. Interrelations with phenetically close congeners are analyzed; in addition, the presence/absence of microsetae proximal to the tricho...

Description
Summary:A new species of the pseudoscorpion genus Roncus L. Koch (Neobisiidae) from Serbia (Kulina, Mt. Medvednik) is described and its diagnostic characters are illustrated. Interrelations with phenetically close congeners are analyzed; in addition, the presence/absence of microsetae proximal to the trichobothria eb and esb and presence/absence of one or two outstanding tubercles on the interior lateral side of pedipalpal femur are established as important taxonomic characters.
