N. Peja et L. Deharveng, CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDY OF THE GENUS PU MILINURA-CASSAGNAU, 1979 (COLLEMBOLA, NEANURINAE), Annales de la Societe entomologique de France, 31(4), 1995, pp. 385-392
It is the first time that the genus Pumilinura Cassagnau, 1979 has bee
n recorded in Albany, with two species : P. albanica, sp. n. and P. lo
ksai (Dunger, 1973). The 10 species of Albanian Neanurinae are listed.
The genus Pumilinura is redefined with a key of its 5 species, Pumili
nura hidalgoi Cassagnau & Palacios Vargas, 1983 from Mexico being cons
idered as incertae sedis. The relationships of Pumilinura are discusse
d on the basis of the unusual characters of its buccal cone and mouthp
arts.
