Diagnosis
(
Condé 1974
;
Bareth 1988
)
Body length
3.2–7.5 mm
; epicuticle smooth, rarely with micridenticles visible up to high optical magnifications; short smooth to thick with a short distal barb clothing setae; antennae with 30–37 antennomeres; sensillum of third antennomere in ventral position; apical antennomere three times as long as wide; cupuliform organ with 12–20 olfactory chemoreceptors each with tiny long digits cooped up in small cup; robust long to short notal macrosetae with a few small distal barbs or smooth; thick with a few short distal barbs to slightly thin pine cone marginal setae; 3+3

macrosetae on VIII urotergite; 5+5

-setae; cerci longer than body with 17–18 articles, subdivided in two, three and four from proximal to distal articles, covered in short macrosetae usually with apical barb on proximal articles and smooth on distal ones, all of them with a few clothing setae.
Taxonomic notes
The specimens studied in this contribution have been sorted out using the morphology of notal marginal setae due to the absence of antennae in almost all the specimens, many completely broken from their bases. A variety of setae shapes among the studied material has been observed (Supplementary file 2), allowing to differentiate two main morphotypes:
C.
(
P.
) aff.
pretneri
I with short and smooth notal clothing setae and thick with a short apical barbs notal marginal setae (
Fig. 55
); and
C.
(
P.
) aff.
pretneri
II
with short notal clothing setae with a small distal barb and slightly pine cone with short small barbs (
Fig. 56
). Several specimens of Jama Kevderc and Klemenškov (
Slovenia
) have microdenticles visible at 400 × magnification, smooth in all the other studied material.
Habitat and distribution
Cave-dwelling species limited to some karst areas in the Julian Alps and the Dinaric Mountains, in
Italy
and
Slovenia
(
Condé 1974
;
Bareth 1988
).
