Male as for  T. armatumin live colour, colour in alcohol and most non-gonopod details, but overall widths tergite 6>5>4>(3,2,head)>collum, ring 12 paranota 1.3 × as wide as prozonite, 6–7 small setae in transverse rows on midbody metatergites ( Fig. 3A), ozopore opening very close to paranotal margin. Ring 6 sternite as for  T. armatum, but with paired paramedian brushes of fine setae on anterior margin separated by shallow notch. Gonopod telopodite ( Fig. 22) straight, slightly constricted just above base, with narrow buttress near base on anterolateral surface. Divided between 2/3 and 3/4 telopodite height into five processes (noted here lateral to medial): (a) large, anteroposteriorly flattened process, widely expanded distally, distal margin lower medially and minutely dentate, lateral end of margin broadly acuminate; (b) large, Y-shaped process, flattened anteroposteriorly, divided at ca 2/3 process height, tips roundly acuminate; (c) mediolaterally flattened laminate process, hook-shaped posteriorly; (d) solenomere with slender, distally directed, posteriorly curving distal branch and short, broad, posteriorly directed basal branch; (e) small, slender medial process arising basal to solenomere origin, directed posterodistally, with expanded, truncate tip. Posterodistally directed tract of 20–30 stout, rod-like setae on posteromedial surface from ca 1/3 to 2/3 telopodite height; small group of fine setae on posterolateral surface just above base; longitudinal row of 5–6 fine setae laterally at mid-height on telopodite. Prostatic groove running distally and slightly posteriorly on posteromedial surface to base of solenomere.   Figure 22.  Tasmaniosoma warra sp. n., paratype male, QVM 23:46038 Aand voucher male QVM 23:46040 B–D. ARight posterolateral view of gonopods in situ Bmedial, Canterior and Dlateral views of right gonopod telopodite. Setation not shown in B–D; dashed line marks course of prostatic groove. Scale bars = 0.2 mm. Female more robust than male; posterior margin of epigynum slightly elevated at both ends and produced medially as small, rounded triangle.    Distribution.Common in wet eucalypt forest (with and without a cool temperate rainforest understorey) over ca 2500 km 2on the southeast Tasmanian mainland and on South Bruny Island, from near sea level to at least 370 m( Fig. 24). On the Tasmanian mainland, not yet found more than a few kilometres north of Grove, south of Dover or west of Mt Weld. Co-occurs with  T. bruniense sp. n.on Bruny Island; possibly parapatric with  T. australe sp. n., as the two species occur within ca 7 kmof each other and have not yet been found together.    Etymology.Noun in apposition, for the typelocality in the Warra Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) site in the Southern Forests. 2608941451 1997-04-29 DN, R Australia 0 -43.09333 Huon River 19 146.7175 Male 42 73 R4, QVM 23 1 Tasmania holotype 2608941449 [185,814,413,440] QVM 42 73 QVM 23 1 1 paratype 2608941410 1997-04-28 DN 0 -43.094997 19 146.71138 42 73 R1, QVM 23 1 1 holotype 2608941447 1997-05-14 DN 0 -43.096943 19 146.70778 42 73 QVM 23 1 1 paratype 2608941450 1997-05-15 DN 0 -43.09333 19 146.7125 42 73 R5, QVM 23 1 1 paratype 2608941406 DN 0 -43.0925 19 146.71138 42 73 R6, QVM 23 1 1 paratype 2608941456 1997-05-20 DN, R Mesibov Tas 0 -43.09889 Huon River 19 146.74583 Arve Road 42 73 QVM 23 1 1 paratype
