Abstract

Cylindropygus , a new genus of isotomid Collembola, is described. It differs from all other genera of Isotomidae by a unique combination of characters (abdominal segments V and VI fused, eyes absent, postantennal organ present and elongate, S-chaetotaxy, and absence of foil chaetae) and two remarkable features: a modified labium, with papillae A, B, D bearing strong spines; and a swollen, globular accp3 chaeta on Abd.V. Cylindropygus ferox sp. n. is common in forest soils of central France. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
