Orobainosoma (Brachybainosoma) pretneri Strasser, 1966

Diagnosis. H. pretneri differs from congeners by some gonopodal structures, viz., 1) simple, rounded posterior lamella not bent down in an extensions (vs. bilobed posterior lamella in H. faucium , H. filicis , H. inflata and H. gruberi sp. nov.; posterior lamella with distal notch in H. flavescens and H. hungarica ; posterior lamella ear-shaped and bent down in an extensions in H. fonticulorum and H. germanica ), 2) strong tooth on posterodistal margin of mesal process (vs. mesal process knife-like with posterobasal tooth in H. vidinensis or posterodistal margin of mesal process with several teeth in H. musimontium ) 3) absence of anterior lateral process (vs. developed in H. cyanopida , H. lacusnigri , H. intermedia , H. microcorna , H. makarovi sp. nov., and H. plasana ).

Type material examined: Lectotype ♂ ( MHNG), here designated, body in two parts, mounted on cardboard; one microslide: Orobainosoma (Br.) pretneri Strass. 18.6.55. Jazbinska jama. Podkum. Slow. (752/14), anterior and posterior gonopods, pleurotergite 7, leg-pair 10.

Distribution ( Fig. 38 , 41 ). Slovenia: Known only from its type locality, Jama pri Jazbinah, near Podkum ( Strasser 1966).

Comment. Up to now only one male and one juvenile of this species are known.
