ON TWO NEW CAVE SPECIES OF PSEUDOSCORPIONS (NEOBISIIDAE, PSEUDOSCORPIONES) FROM HERZEGOVINA AND DALMATIA

A careful analysis of samples of pseudoscorpions (Neobisiidae, Pseudoscorpiones) from two underground habitats, one near Trebinje (Herzegovina) and the other from the National Park Paklenica (Croatia), has yielded two species of the genus Roncus L. Koch new to science, Roncus tribunus n. sp. and R. argyrunti n. sp. Both new species are described thoroughly, illustrated, and diagnosed. Some biogeographical and evolutionary characteristics of the two taxa are briefly discussed.
