48 Mahunka, S. and Mahunka-Papp, L. RESULT Pyemotes muraiae sp. n. Holotype: male, Hungary, Budapest, Gazdagrét, Laboratórium. From Eurytoma amygdali (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) breeding, taken from larvae and pupae. 3. III. 1998. Leg. A. Haltrich and G. Marko. Paratypes: 56 paratypes from the same sample. Holotype (1610-HT-98) and 50 paratypes (1610-PT-98) (with identification numbers of the specimens in the Collection of Arachnida) deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest, and 3 paratypes in the Muséum d'Histoire naturelle, Geneve and 3 paratypes in the Collection of the University of Hamburg, Deutschland. Description of female: Body length 219 to 264 u,m, body width: 76 to 110 urn. Pro dorsum: Prodorsal shield elongated, much longer than wide, its rostral margin convex. Three pairs of prodorsal setae present, setae sc extremely long, setae V\ and v

2 nearly equal in length. Peritremes very long, directed inwards, well observable (Fig. 1). Sensillus simple, with short peduncle. Notogaster: Borders of tergites well visible, tergite C the largest and widest of all. The other tergites gradually narrowing posteriorly. All no togastral setae simple and smooth. Among the setae great differences exist in length, setae c\ shorter than setae e and h

2 much shorter than setae/ or h\. Ventral regions (Fig. 2): Typical. Apodemes normally developed, anterior sternal apodeme interrupted anteriorly, among the apodemes ap. 2 run tranversally. Apodemes 3 and 4 well sclerotized. Ventrocaudal lobe between legs III and IV wide, inverse V-shaped. All epimeral setae fine and simple, no essential difference among them. Setae la slightly longer than lb. Epimeral setal formula 2-2-3-3, setae 4b located far posteriorly. Legs: Solenidium of leg I short, wide, 92 of tibia very long, bacilliform, cp] much shorter. Solenidium of tp of leg III located far from setae d (Fig. 4). Claw of leg I much thicker than the same on the others legs. Legs setal formulae typical for the genus: I: 1 - 4 - 4 - 5+2 -10?+2 -1 (Fig. 3); IV: 1 - 2 - 2 - 4+1 - 6 -1 (Fig. 5). Description of male: Body length 171 to 175 u,m, body width 90 to 93 p.m. Prodorsum: Nearly triangular, slightly rounded anteriorly. Four pairs of prodorsal setae arising on it, among them sc\ longest of all, slightly dilated basally, sc

2 nearly half as long as the previous one. Setae v\ minute, v

2 short (Fig. 6). All setae smooth. Notogaster: Its form typical for the genus. Tergites C and D fused together, tergites E, F and H much narrower. Among the setae great differences exist, first of all setae c\ c

2| and setae d and/much longer and thicker than the others, C\

t ci

} and setae d are equal and extremely long. Ventral regions (Fig. 7): Typical for the genus. Apodemes on the posterior sternal region connected with each other on both sides. No sternal apodeme on the posterior part visible. Legs: Their form and setation as shown in Figs 8 and 9. Legs setal formulae: 1:

1 -4-4-5+2-11 + 1-1 (Fig. 8); IV: 1 - 2 - 2 - 4+1 - 6 -1 (Fig. 9). Remarks: The species of the genus Pyemotes was surveyed by Cross et all. (1981), who also published a determination key for the species. The new species is well characterised by the form of the solenidia of leg I of the female and the extremely long
