Elaphoidella plesai n. sp. is described from material collected from cave waters of Austria. According to Apostolov (1985) the new species fits the gracilis group of Elaphoidella s. str., being close to Elaphoidella stammeri Chappuis, 1936. It differs from the nominate species, as well as from other congeners in the same group, by the distinctive morphology and setation of caudal rami, and by the unusual armature of leg 5.
Résumé
On décrit Elaphoidella plesai n. sp. des eaux souterraines d'une grotte d'Autriche. Selon Apostolov (1985), cette nouvelle espèce appartient au groupe gracilis où elle est proche d'Elaphoidella stammeri Chappuis, 1936. Toutefois elle diffère de toutes les autres espèces du groupe gracilis par la morphologie des rames caudales et par l'ornementation particulière de la P5.
