Description. Body length up to 3 mm excluding antennae. Body yellowish, usually with two longitudinal bands running from Th II and joining on posterior end of Abd IV, dark rectangle on Abd V and VI. Some individuals with subtle lines on both sides of head and on lateral sides of Th II and III ( Figs 5 , 32 ). Some specimens without colour pattern ( Figs 6 , 33 ). Head. Eight ocelli, GH smaller than EF. Antennae length 2352 µm ( holotype ), more than 3 times head's length, Ant IV with bilobed apical vesicle. Relative length of Ant I/II/III/IV = 1/1.2/?/2; in paratypes = 1/1,2–1,4/1,1–1,3/ 1,9–2,3. Labral papillae smooth and more or less conical ( Fig. 19 ). Body. Length ratio of Abd IV/III>4. Trochanteral organ as in Fig. 18 . Claw with 4 inner teeth: paired at 50% and proximal unpaired at 78% from base ( holotype ), with distal unpaired minute; dorsal tooth more or less on internal teeth level. Unguiculus lanceolate, with smooth external edge on leg III. Tenent hair as in Fig. 20 . Length of manubrium + dentes: 780 + 900 µm ( holotype ). Manubrial plate with over 10 chaetae and 2 pseudopores ( Fig. 22 ). Mucronal subapical tooth similar in size to apical one, mucronal spine present ( Fig. 21 ). Measurements of selected body parts are listed in table 1. Chaetotaxy. Simplified basic formula: 3-2(+ 1m )-0-3-2(+ 1m )/3-7/2-4(5)/0-2-1/4(3-6)-1 0 4-1-1(2)-3(4); Head chaetotaxy as in Fig 1 . Thorax chaetotaxy ( Fig. 2 ): Th II area T1 with 3 Mc (m 1 , m 2 and m 2i ), area T2 with 7 Mc (a 5 , m 4 , m 4i , m 4p , m 4pi , m 4pi2 and m 5 ). Abdomen chaetotaxy ( Figs 3–4 ): Abd II area A1 with 2 Mc (a 2 and a 3 ), area A2 with 5 Mc (m 3 , m 3e , m 3ea , m 3ei and m 3ep ) (in larger specimens (also in holotype ) there are 5 macrochaetae in A2 area, while in smaller specimens (but already adult) there are often 4 macrochaetae in the same area). Abd III area A3 without Mc, area A4 with 2 Mc (a 2 and a 3 ) and area A5 with 1 Mc (m 3 ). Abd IV plurichaetotic; sometimes with asymmetric distribution of supplementary Mc or m in areas A6, A7 and A8, especially in young adult specimens (in some young adult specimens there is one additional m or Mc in A04 on the A8 area of Abd IV). Biology. Swampy and moist habitats. The species was usually recorded on grasses and sedges ( Carex sp., Juncus sp. and Phragmites sp.). Discussion. The main colour form of this species resembles that of E. dorsolineata Jordana, Schulz & Baquero, 2011 . Concerning chaetotaxy, fourteen Palaearctic species have 0-2-1 Mc in areas A3, A4 and A5 of Abd III, but only four have 2-4 Mc in areas A1 and A2 on Abd II ( E. karlstetterae Baquero & Jordana, 2008 , E. koreana Yosii, 1965 , E. monopunctata Lee & Park, 1984 , E. oleniensis Tshelnokov, 1987 ) and there is one species which has the overlapping formula of chaetotaxy 1(2)-3(4) on Abd II ( E. barogii Baquero & Jordana, 2015 in: Baquero et al. 2015 ). However, they differ from the new species in colouration of body and chaetotaxy of Abd IV. The two colour forms of E . emiliae differ in presence/absence of two longitudinal lines on dorsal side of a body ( Figs 5 , 32 vs. 6, 33). This feature is not connected with springtail's sex. Striped form predominates while nonstriped form was found almost exclusively at the type locality. I presume that longitudinal lines may disappear in older specimens. Etymology. This species is dedicated to my wife Emilia.
