Glomeris klugii Brandt, 1833

Distribution

West and South European

Notes

A, e,?

The species (known under synonyms G. conspersa and G. undulata in older literature) is characterised by a south-western occurrence in Europe ( Kime and Enghoff 2011). It has been confirmed in most of the neighbouring countries (Poland, Czech Republic, Austria and Hungary). For Slovakia, only one record of this species has been recently discovered, in the millipede collection of Czech arachnologist František Miller (1902-1983), housed in the National Museum, Prague ( Dolejš and Kocourek 2020). One female specimen of G. klugii is included in the collection, labelled with April 1930, Turčianske Teplice District, Žilina Region. Based on this information, a series of sampling from this area has been conducted, but unsuccessfully. Therefore, a mistake in localisation made by collector is highly possible.
