| Summary: | * Schendyla cf. nemorensis (C.L. Koch, 1837) Material examined: 23 3, 43 ƤƤ, 1 unsexed. Sites: 49, 50, 55, 56, 57, 70, 87, 90, 104, 110, 119, 121, 122, 123, 124, 142, 144, 147, 148, 153, 173 (Fig. 21). Habitats. Pinus forests, patches with Quercus, fields with Ceratonia, phryganic formations, cultivations with vineyard, mixed forests with Pinus, Quercus and Acer, ravines with Platanus, Juniperus and Quercus. Altitudinal range: 370–1920 m. Range of leg pairs recorded in Cyprus. 35–41 (3) and 35–43 (ƤƤ). Remarks. S. nemorensis is an European species whose range includes Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Greece (Cyclades, Dodecanese), Ireland, Italy (mainland, Sardinia, Sicily), Norway, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal (Azores Isl.), Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain (Balearic Isl.), Sweden, United Kingdom; also recorded in North Africa (Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia) and introduced to Newfoundland and North America (Eason 1964; Zapparoli 2002; Simaiakis et al. 2005). The specimens here examined are similar to S. nemorensis, but some minor, yet invariant differences suggest that they could belong to a different species. It seems different also from the specimen recorded from Cyprus under Schendyla zonalis Brolemann & Ribaut, 1911 by Turk (1952). According to Turk (1952), a male 20.5 mm long with 41 pair of legs, terminal legs with two coxal pores, twentyone teeth on the labrum, and teeth on the mandibles arranged in 3: 2: 3, has been recorded from Kannoures and identified as Schendyla zonalis Brolemann and Ribaut, 1911, currently a junior synonym of S. carniolensis Verhoeff, 1902 whose distribution include Austria, France (mainland), Italy (mainland, Sardinia), Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Spain (mainland) and Ukraine. The taxonomic identity of this record should be reassessed.
