Abstract

Seracamaurops cadmei n. sp. (Staphylinidae, Pselaphinae, Amauropini) is described from the caves Jezero (altitude 920 m) and Glogova jama (altitude 950 m), both located on Mt. Sniježnica in the Konavle region (southeast of Dubrovnik) in Croatia. It is the first reported representative of the genus Seracamaurops in Croatia. This new species clearly differs from other representatives of this genus through several taxonomic characters such as the length of pedicel, male aedeagus, and the fissures of the last tergite in both sexes.
