( FIG. 12I–N View Figure 12 )

Material examined: Cylomissus glabratus Broun, 1903: 1 male, 1 female (NMPC): New Zealand: Otago Lakes, Little Meg headwaters at Cardrona Skifield Rd. , stream collecting in small exposed streamlets (stony and mossy), 44°52.60’S 168°57.65’E, 1280 m, 5.xii.2017, M. Fikáček, D. Sadílek & V. Sýkora lgt. (2017-NZ63). 1 male ( NMPC): New Zealand GoogleMaps : Stewart Island, Fern Gully W of Oban, at bridge over Mill Creek , 17–21.i.2016, 46°53.52’S 168°6.00’E, 45 m, M. Seidel, V. Sýkora & M. Fikáček lgt. (2016- NZ 004) GoogleMaps .

Karyotype: 2 n = 22 + Xy (♂). Autosome pair 1 is 3–4 times the length of pair 2, whereas the remaining pairs have a gradual decrease in length along the karyotype, with pair 11 about half the length of pair 2, the X chromosome is only slightly longer than pair 11. The Y chromosome is dot-like. Examined specimens from both localities have a similar karyotype.
