Diagnosis

Adult female. Peritremes simple, with 1 loop; palptarsus with 2 + 1 eupathidium + 1; pdx absent; idiosomal setae lanceolate; c1, d1 and e1 much long; c1: c2 = 2.6–3.1, d1: d2 = 2.6–3.1, e1: e2 = 2.5–2.8, f1: f2 = 1.1, c1: d1: e1: f1 = 3.8–4.1: 3.7–3.8: 2.2–3.4: 1.0; femora I– IV with 4, 3, 3, 2; tarsi I–II with 10 + 1, 10 + 1.

This species is very similar to T. polonicus Bolland and T. stramenticola Bolland in lacking of pdx, c1 being less than 2x of d1, but can be separated from them in dorsal most seta on femur III being long and e1 being longer than 2x of f1.
