Material examined: Holotype: 1 male (IBSS), Russia, Republic of Altai, Choiskii District, environs of Baltyrgan Mts, rocky tundra, collected 5 August 2001 by N.V. Levina; Paratypes (all from Russia, Republic of Altai, Choiskii District, environs of Baltyrgan Mts, collected N.B. Levina): 2 males (one male is dissected for SEM: antenna, gnathochilarium), 7 females, 3 juveniles (one of them is possible intercalary male), 1 fragment (IBSS), same locality as for holotype, collected 5 August 2001; 5 males (PSU), 3 males (IBSS), 3 males (ZMUM), 23 females (PSU), 5 females (IBSS), 5 females (ZMUM), 8 juveniles (two of them are possible intercalary males), 3 fragments (IBSS), same locality as for holotype, pitfall traps, collected 12 August 2001; 1 male (IBSS), 2 males, 4 females, 6 juveniles (one of them is possible intercalary male) (PSU), same locality as for holotype, collected 13 August 2001; 1 female (PSU), bush tundra, collected 6 August 2001; 1 male, 2 females, 1 juvenile (PSU), forest-tundra, 1,700 m a.s.l., collected 12 August 2001; 1 male (IBSS: male is dissected for SEM: gonopods, leg pair 1, leg pair 2), 3 females, 1 juvenile (PSU), alpine meadow, pitfall traps, collected 13 August. Diagnosis: This species differs from its congeners from the Asian part of Russia mainly by the presence in the male of anterolateral swellings of the gnathochilarial stipes, the unciform apex of the gonopod opisthomere, the gonopod promere without crests, and the pregonopodal legs distinctly thickened as compared with postgonopodal ones. Description: Male. Body about 20 – 21 mm long, width 1.1 – 1.2 mm, with 42 (- 1), 43 (- 2), 43 (- 1) 44 (- 2) segments, excluding telson. Holotype 21 mm long, with 43 (- 2) segments, excluding telson. Coloration reddish-brown with dark brown spots laterally. Metazonites with a dark brown transverse band. Thin, dark, axial line clearly discernible on dorsum. Anterior portion of collum dark brown. Head dark brown, its anterior portion brown. Bulbous anterolateral ... |
