摘要

Larca bosselaersi sp. n., a new troglobitic pseudoscorpion from Crete, is described and compared with related species. The genus is new for Greece. The cave-dwelling pseudoscorpion fauna of Crete is rich and varied. Recently new troglobitic relicts have been described, some very specialised and morphologically altered (Henderickx, 1997, 2000). There is also the scattered presence of representatives of unexpected genera, more or less adapted to cave life, that probably colonised the island during periods when Crete was near or attached to the mainland (Henderickx, 1998). Deeleman-Reinhold (1989) argues that during the isolation of Crete in the Quaternary era species evolved by splitting off from ancestral forms and adapted to live in the shallow cavesystems. It is likely that an indigenous fauna exists in the porous underground system of Crete and that some caves are only gateways to this mostly unknown ecosystem. Evidence for this view is provided by the discovery of a colony of the troglobitic Neohisium (Ommatoblothrus) schawalleri Henderickx, 2000 in the Arkalospiliara cave, Maratos, Crete. This species was previously known only from the Doxa cave, Maratos, which is separated from the Arkalospiliara cave by a distance of approximately 4 km.
