Abstract
- A new species of false scorpion belonging to the family Chthoniidae, Chthonius (Chthonius) globocicae n. sp., is described from a cave in the village of Trnovo, near Virpazar in Montenegro. This endemic form is illustrated, diagnosed, and thoroughly compared to its phenetically closest congener [C. (C.) porevidi Curcic, Makarov & Lucic, 1998] from the area of Krivosije in Montenegro. Additionally, certain diagnostic and other features, taxonomic traits and biogeographical details are briefly discussed in the light of evolution of the karstification process in Montenegro.
