New record.
La Gomera. El Cedro, Garajonay National Park (28°7'25.03"N, 17°13'26.88"W, 966 m a.s.l.; new grid (500 × 500 m) for El Cedro in the Biodiversity Data Bank of the Canary Islands (BDBC)), 2 exx, 17 March 2017, GEEI (Grupo de Ecología y Evolución en Islas) leg. (IPNA-CSIC); Teselinde (28°11'46.35"N, 17°17'15.55"W, 744 m a.s.l.), 2 exx, 18 March 2017, GEEI leg. (IPNA-CSIC).
The speciose genus Laparocerus includes one species from South Morocco and 221 taxa endemic either to Madeira or the Canary Islands (Machado, 2018), several of them having adapted to the different habitats of the underground as lava tubes, the MSS and the soil ( Machado 2018). The prospection of MSS and soil in La Gomera has provided new locations for L. oromii on this island, one of them being the first location reported for this species outside Garajonay National Park.
