Haasea Verhoeff, 1895 - a genus of tumultuous history and chaotic recordsredefinition, revision of taxonomy and geographic distributions, with descriptions of two new species from Austria and Serbia (Diplopoda, Chordeumatida, Haaseidae) Author Antić, Dragan Author Akkari, Nesrine text Zootaxa 2020 2020-06-16 4798 1 1 77 journal article 21683 10.11646/zootaxa.4798.1.1 d8c0dac0-6b03-43f4-be6d-1dc3d3d9cfa3 1175-5326 3896551 4830ED2F-DB55-468E-97D4-2A278CBA6CE0 Haasea faucium ( Verhoeff, 1931a ) Figs 6 , 38 , 41 Orobainosoma faucium Verhoeff, 1931a Haasea faucia ( Verhoeff, 1931a ) —see below Diagnosis. Differs from the other congeners, except H. filicis , H. inflata and H. gruberi sp. nov. , by the presence of bilobed posterior lamella on angiocoxites. From H. filicis , it differs by 1) anterodistal margin of mesal process: small-toothed in H. faucium vs. large-toothed in H. filicis and 2) posterior lamellae: superposed, upper one smaller and bent down into an extension in H. faucium vs. lamellae almost parallel to each other, almost of the same size and simply rounded in H. filicis . From H. inflata , it differs by the shape of 1) mesal process: saw-like in H. faucium vs. hand-like with several distal teeth in H. inflata , 2) posterior lamellae: upper lamella bent down into an extension in H. faucium vs. upper one simply rounded, 3) posterior lateral process: strongly curved posteriad in H. faucium vs. straight in H. inflata . From H. gruberi sp. nov. , it differs by the presence of an upper posterior lamella bent down into an extension (vs. rounded upper posterior lamella in H. gruberi sp. nov. ), or by the presence of denticulated mesal process (vs. simple mesal process without denticles in H. gruberi sp. nov. ).

The Latin term faucium is genitive plural and should remain as such although Haasea is feminine gender. Type material examined: Lectotype : ♂ slide preparation ( ZSM-A 20032155 ) includes anterior and posterior gonopods, head, antennae, leg-pairs 10 and 11, leg-pair?7, Golobeja jama b. Idria , Orobainosoma faucium Verh. , here designated. Other material examined: SLOVENIA : 1 ♂ , 1 ♀ , Orobainosoma faucium Verh. , det. Strasser , Tarnowaner Wald (= Trnovski Gozd), Görz leg. ( NHMW9499 ) . Distribution ( Figs 38 , 41 ). Slovenia : Golobeja jama Pit, Črni Vrh, Idrija ( Verhoeff 1931a ; Strasser 1966 ), Bošnarjev brezen Pit, Dol-Otlica ( Strasser 1966 ), Veliki Bukovec, Nanos ( Strasser 1966 ), Trevnov golobinec Pit, Kovačev rovt, Idrija ( Strasser 1966 ). Trnovski Gozd ( Attems 1949 ). Type locality. Golobeja jama Pit , Slovenia . Comments. Attems (1949: 130) recorded this species from Julian Alps but this was not mentioned by Strasser (1966) . Since we found no trace of that Haasea material in NHMW, this locality/area is not considered as part of the species distribution range.
