ETYMOLOGY. — The species is named in honour of Dr Judith Najt who has contributed so much to the knowledge of Collembola . DISTRIBUTION AND ECOLOGY. — Neanura judithae n. sp. has been collected exclusively in Tatra Mts, where it is resident of native Norway spruce forest (upper montane belt, Fig. 3 ) and dwarf-pine shrubs (subalpine belt). It inhabits litter, mosses and less frequently decaying wood. DESCRIPTION General ( Fig. 1A, B ) Body length (without antennae): 0.55 to 1.65 mm ( holotype : 0.98 mm ). Habitus typical for the genus, parallel and convex. FIG. 1. — Neanura judithae n. sp. : A , dorsal chaetotaxy; B , chaetotaxy of head, dorsolateral view; C , dorsal chaetotaxy of Ant. III-IV; D , ventral chaetotaxy of Ant. III; E , chaetotaxy of labrum. Abbreviations: see Material and methods. Scale bars: A-D, 0.1 mm; E, 0.01 mm.

V.Abbreviations: see Material and methods. Scale bars: 0.1 mm. Colour of the body dark bluish grey, rather intense. 3 +3 medium black eyes, in a typical arrangement for the genus (two anterior and one posterior). Chaetal morphology ( Figs 1A, B ; 2 B-D) Dorsal ordinary chaetae of five types : long macrochaetae (Ml), short macrochaetae (Mc), very short macrochaetae (Mcc), mesochaetae and microchaetae. Long macrochaetae relatively thick, slightly arc-like or straight, narrowly sheathed, feebly serrated, apically pointed or rounded. Macrochaetae Mc and Mcc morphologically similar to long macrochaetae, but much shorter. Mesochaetae similar to ventral chaetae, thin, smooth and pointed. Microchaetae similar to mesochaetae, but shorter, limited to chaeta Di2 on head and abdominal segments IV-V. S-chaetae of tergites thin, smooth and short, notably shorter than nearby macrochaetae.

Antennae ( Fig. 1C, D ; Table 1B ) Typical of the genus. S-chaetae of Ant.IV of medium length, subequal and moderately thickened. Apical vesicle distinct, trilobed. Dorsal chaeta d5 absent on ant. III. Mouthparts ( Fig. 1E ) Buccal cone relatively short with labral sclerifications nonogival. Labrum chaetotaxy: 4/2, 4. Labium with four basal, three distal and four lateral chaetae, papillae × absent. Maxilla styliform, mandible thin and tridentate. Dorsal chaetotaxy and tubercles ( Fig. 1A, B ; 2B ; Tables 1A, C ) Chaetotaxy of head reduced, chaetae C, D, E, Oca and So1 absent.Tubercles Di on Th. I differentiated and not fused with tubercles De. Thorax and abdomen without free chaetae. On Th. II-III, chaetae De2 longer than De3. Abd. I-III without chaetae De3. On Abd. I-III, the line of chaetae De1-chaeta s perpendicular to the dorsomedian line. On Abd. V, tubercles Di fused along midline and with 2+ 2 chaetae, chaetae Di3 absent. No cryptopygy, Abd. VI well visible from above. Ventral chaetotaxy ( Fig. 2A ; Table 1C ) On head, groups Vea, Vem and Vep with 3-4, 4, 4 chaetae respectively; group Vi with 6 chaetae. On Abd. IV, furcal rudiment without microchaetae. On Abd. V, chaeta Vl present. Male with thick and forked chaetae (“male ventral organ”) on even anal valves (Abd. VI), in groups Ag (Abd. V) and Ve (Abd. IV). Legs ( Table 1C ) Claw without internal tooth. On tibiotarsi, chaeta M present and chaetae B4 and B5 relatively short (ratio- inner edge of claw: chaeta B4: chaeta B5; 12: 9: 11) and pointed. REMARKS Neanura judithae n. sp. is morphologically most similar to N . parva , resembling that species in having a strong reduction of chaetotaxy on head (chaetae Oca, C, D and E absent) and absence of free chaetae on dorsal side of the body. Nevertheless, they are readily distinguished by different shape of labral sclerifications (non-ogival in N . judithae n. sp. vs ogival in N . parva , Figs 1E ; 5F ), number of chaetae De on Th. III ( 4 in N . judithae n. sp. vs 5 in N . parva ), number of chaetae De on Abd. I-III ( 3 in N . judithae n. sp. vs 4 in N . parva ) and number of chaetae Di on Abd. V (2+ 2 in N . judithae n. sp. vs 3 + 3 in N . parva , Figs 2B ; 5G ). Furthermore, N . judithae n. sp. is characterized by complete fusion of tubercles Di on Abd. V (in N . parva tubercles are fused only distally, Fig. 5G ). The new species seems to be a true endemic to the Tatra Mts, whereas N . parva has a much larger distribution range, extending across the whole Western and Eastern Carpathians, Sudetes, Southeastern Alps, and some lowland/upland localities in Poland (Smolis pers. comm.).
