Diagnosis

Relatively long-legged subspecies of Nemastoma bidentatum , with strait Ch ventral margin, and Pa-Fe with either 4 subequidistantly positioned spines or pointed tubercles or long setae on low protrusions, or their combination in the distal Pa-Fe half, or alternatively, with 2–3 distal stout thorns. Rec sem with one tubular and 12 elongated balloon-like vesicles.

Etymology

The subspecies name ʻ gruberi ʼ is dedicated to Jürgen Gruber (Vienna), our teacher, colleague and friend, who generously introduced us to the taxonomy of harvestmen and helped in identifying problematic specimens.

Description

Male (holotype)

BODY. Length 1.99, body width 1.48.

CHELICERAE. Ch basal article (without Apo) length 0.60, relatively long, 2.4 times as long as wide at Ch max width at dorsal hump. Ch-Apo small, 0.3 times as high as basal article long, rounded-trapezoid, widest distally and highest posteriorly; Ch-Apo 0.18 high, max width 0.17, min width 0.10 (at the base), ventral margin straight, with 0.70 long and 0.02 deep indentation with 10–20 μm high tipped tubercles and denticles constituting a saw. Secretion field fronto-medially, apically. Distal article length 0.67, max width 0.24, movable finger length 0.29 ( Figs 4E , 6E , 9E ).

PEDIPALPS. Pa-Fe relatively thin (Pa-Fe min:max width ~1:2.8), with variable armament: either (the main population) with 4 subequidistant tubercles, spines or long setae, or their combination in the distal Pa-Fe half, or alternatively (marginal population in SW Slovenia), with 2–3 distal stout thorns. Pa-Pt relatively thin (length:max width ~ 1:4.2) ( Figs 5E , 6E , 10E ). Pa article lengths in Table 8.

PENIS. Pe length 1.57, base 0.57, glans 0.18, stylus 0.07 ( Figs 7E , 8E ).

LEGS. Pseudoarticle leg-Fe formula I−IV: 0−1−1−2. Tarsomere leg-Fe formula I−IV: 10−16−9−10. Leg article lengths in Table 8.

Female

BODY. Body length 2.49, body width 1.76.

CHELICERAE. Ch basal article length 0.65, 2.6 times as long as wide at dorsal hump, with low-arched dorsal margin in front of dorsal indentation, and low ventral round-triangular hump ( Fig. 13D ). Distal article length 0.67, max width 0.20, movable finger length 0.31.

PEDIPALPS. Pa-Tr with relatively high, symmetrically, slightly knee-like arched dorsal margin, Pa-Fe with conspicuous distal bonce, Pa-Ti elongated ellipsoid ( Fig. 13D ). Pa article lengths in Table 8.

OVIPOSITOR. Ovipositor length 0.81, Rec sem with one tubular and 12 elongated balloon-like vesicles ( Fig. 11E ).

LEGS. Leg article lengths in Table 8.

Variability

In eastern Slovenia, males mostly have four thin medio-ventral spines of similar size on the Pa-Fe, the proximal one placed approximately in the middle of the Pa-Fe. In south-eastern Slovenia, some spines can be very small or diminished to a tubercle with a seta. In contrast, in south-western Slovenia, males have three or rarely two large, stout thorns, sometimes resembling those in N. b. bidentatum . Further investigation in Croatian Istria is required to elucidate the whole range of morphological variation and the expected transition between the tender eastern and robust western armament of the Pa-Fe.

Remarks

Nemastoma b. gruberi ssp. nov. is the most variable subspecies within N. bidentatum . Prior to this study, a few collected individuals had been considered within the variability range of N. b. sparsum, e.g., individuals from Buje and Vižinada considered as paratypes of N. b. sparsum (NHMW 4700). Accordingly, Novak et al. (2002) and Novak (2004b, 2005b) misidentified specimens, and those from SW Slovenia were erroneously reported ( Novak 2005b) as a disjunctive population of N. b. sparsum in the Sub Mediterranean region in Slovenia. Near the border of its distribution area in SW Slovenia, N. b. gruberi ssp. nov. has relatively uniform, robust Pa-Fe, with 3 subequidistant, rarely 2, large, stout thorns, much different from the armament in the main population.

Distribution

Croatia, Italy, Slovenia. Vertical distribution in Slovenia: 4−1619 m a.s.l. Type locality: Dolenje Laknice, Mokronog (45.93° N, 15.21° E, 237 m a.s.l.), Slovenia.

Ecology

Nemastoma b. gruberi ssp. nov. inhabits various habitat types in lowland and hilly land, from thermophile shrub and Quercetalia pubescenti–petraeae Klika 1928 communities in southwestern regions to riverine, floodplain and submontane woods in southern and south-eastern Slovenia. Phenology: adults eurychronous.

The habitus of a male Nemastoma bidentatum gruberi Novak, Slana Novak, Kozel & Raspotnig ssp. nov.; Svete gore, Slovenia (photo: C. Komposch); inset: femur IV with two pseudo-articles (apparent articles, i.e., sections delimited with pale, indented rings on the proximal femur portion), and a saw on the latero-posterior margin. B. The body of a male Nemastoma relictum Gruber & Martens, 1968 stat. nov. showing the tuberculate surface of glittering scutum compositum, and position of the ocular mound (tuber oculorum), supracheliceral lamellae, chelicerae with cheliceral apophysis, and pedipalps and leg. The frontal portion of the scutum is smeared over with a hardened secretum of the integumental glands (cf. Wolff et al. 2016); Mt. Grosses Karr, the Koralpen Mts, Austria. C. The body of a male Nemastoma bidentatum gruberi ssp. nov., smeared over with the secretum; Kozje, Slovenia.
