Title

A new species of the genus Proasellus (Crustacea: Isopoda: Asellidae) from the Abin River basin, with the preliminary data on the diversity of the genus in the southwestern foothills of the Russian Caucasus

Abstract

A new stygobiotic species of the genus Proasellus Dudich, 1925 (Crustacea:
Isopoda: Asellidae), Proasellus abini sp.n., is described from the hyporheic habitats and
groundwater of the Abin River basin, located in the southwestern foothills of the Caucasian
Ridge. The new species is morphologically and genetically close to Proasellus linearis
Birštein, 1967, known from the Evstafiev Sсhel (=Ashamba River) near Gelendzhik. Data
on phylogeny, ecology and feeding of the species and other SW Caucasian species of the
genus are also presented in the paper.
