Abstract
The Australasian pseudoscorpion genus Nesidiochernes Beier, 1957 currently comprises 14 species, including two from Australia. A third Australian species, Nesidiochernes fissuricola sp. nov., is described from the Pilbara region of Western Australia. We provide the first description of the female genitalia and tritonymph for any species of Nesidiochernes.
