Remarks.

Juveniles from Magadan (NE Russia) have a furcal field with 2+2 setae behind the cuticular furrow, followed by 3+3 q-setae (Fig. 27). This pattern is in a full accordance with what Pomorski (1996) reported from European populations. In adults a few additional setae (usually in asymmetric positions) may appear between the primary rows of the juvenile, obscuring the original pattern (Fig. 28). The formula of the parapseudocelli (psx) in specimens from Magadan is also the same as Pomorski (1998) noticed from Europe: 0/000/1101, absent on subcoxae.
