Famulus of tarsus I short, straight, slightly swollen distally, located posterior to solenidion ω2. Solenidion ω1 on tarsus I, ω 1 and ω 2 on tarsus II, σ on genu III bacilliform, other solenidia setiform. Material examined. Holotype (male) and nine paratypes ( three males and six females ): locality 14; two paratypes ( one male and one female ): locality 13; one paratype ( one female ): locality 3. Type deposition. The holotype is deposited in the collection of the Senckenberg Institute, Görlitz, Germany ; twelve paratypes are deposited in the collection of the Tyumen State University Museum of Zoology , Tyumen , Russia . All specimens are preserved in 70% solution of ethanol with a drop of glycerol. Etymology. The specific name insularis refers to the insular place of origin. Note: Roman letters refer to setae, Greek letters to solenidia (except ε = famulus); single quotation mark ( ’ ) designates setae on the anterior and double quotation mark ( ” ) setae on the posterior side of a given leg segment; parentheses refer to a pair of setae.

Remarks. Trachyoribates insularis sp. n. is morphologically most similar to Trachyoribates filipinus ( Corpuz-Raros, 1979 ) (see also CORPUZ-RAROS 1991 ) from the Philippines in having all legs with three claws, short interlamellar seta and a pointed rostrum. However, the new species differs from the latter by the presence (versus absence) of smooth longitudinally elongate median part of the notogaster and striate genital plate, and the absence (versus presence) of notogastral setae (setal alveoli versus short setae).
