Abstract
Two new troglobitic species of the pseudoscorpion genus Anatemnus are described from north-western Australia. Both species occur in subterranean environments, with Anatemnus eminus sp. nov. found throughout the Pilbara, and Anatemnus capillatus sp. nov. collected from a cave on Barrow Island. Both species share morphological features with Anatemnus subvastus Alexander, Burger and Harvey, 2014, the first described troglobitic species from the Pilbara bioregion.
