Note: Roman letters refer to normal setae, Greek letters to solenidia (except ɛ = famulus). Single prime (
'
) marks setae on the anterior and double prime (
"
) setae on the posterior side of a given leg segment. Parentheses refer to a pair of setae. Tr – trochanter, Fe – femur, Ge – genu, Ti – Tibia, Ta – tarsus.
Epimeral and lateral podosomal regions — An- terior tectum of epimere I smooth. Epimeral setal formula: 1-0-1-2; setae thin, barbed,
1b
and
3b
(45 – 53) longer than
4a
and
4b
(32 – 36).
Pedotecta II
trapezoid, rounded distally in ventral view. Dis- cidia sharply triangular. Circumpedal carinae (
cp
) directed to pedotecta I.
.
Anogenital region — Six pairs of genital (

ag
, 20 – 24), two pairs of anal (
an

Legs — Morphology of leg segments, setae and solenidia typical for
Galumna

(e.g. Engel- brecht 1969;
Ermilov and Anichkin
2010). Median claw slightly thicker than laterals, all indistinctly serrate on dorsal side. Formulas of leg setation and solenidia: I (1-4-3-4-20) [1-2-2], II (1-4-3-4-15) [1-1- 2], III (1-2-1-3-15) [1-1-0], IV (1-2-2-3-12) [0-1-0]; ho- mology of setae and solenidia indicated in
Table 1
. Solenidion ’ of tibiae IV inserted dorsally at about 2/3 length of segment.

Etymology — The specific name
parazeucta
refers to the similarity between the new species and the species
Erogalumna zeuctaGrandjean, 1964
.
Remarks — The new species is morphologi- cally most similar to
Galumna
(
Galumna
)
neonominataSubías 2004
(=
Galumna clavata
PØrez-˝aeigo and
Baggio 1991
)1 from
Brazil
(see PØrez-˝aeigo and Baggio 1991) and
G.
(
Galumna
)
pterolineata
Hammer, 1972
from Tahiti (see
Hammer 1972
) in having a
striate
body surface. However, it differs from both by the presence of strongly elongated (vs. oval) noto- gastral porose areas
Aa
and
A3
.
The new species also is morphologically similar to
Erogalumna zeuctaGrandjean, 1964
from the Neotropical region (see
Grandjean 1964
,
1966
) in the striate body surface, relatively long prodorsal setae, bothridial setae with small head, well-developed anterior notogastral margin, presence of a postanal porose area and four pairs of notogastral porose ar- eas and the position of setal alveoli
la
medial to ar- eas
Aa
. It differs from
E. zeucta
by the absence of modified leg setae in males (vs. present; this is a generic character of
Erogalumna
) and the presence of strongly elongated postanal porose area and notogastral porose areas
Aa
and
A3
(vs.
Aa
slightly elongated,
A3
oval).
