Pseudotremia simulans Loomis View in CoL
P. simulans Loomis 1939 View in CoL , p. 170; Shear, 1972, p. 187.
Type locality: Simmons Cave, near Cave Post Office, Pendlleton Co., WEST VIRGINIA. Holotype male in MCZ.
All known localities were reported by me in 1972. Closely related to P. princeps , this is a large, pigmented epigean or troglophilic species that has been taken in two caves and in an epigean habitat (a marsh). All localities are in Pendleton Co., near the town of Franklin and in the drainage of the South Fork of the South Branch of the Potomac River. P. princeps and P. simulans may be descendants of a common ancestor, populations of which became isolated in the two adjacent valleys.
