Remarks. Seira pini is most similar to S. squamoornata (Scherbakov, 1898) , S. saxatilis Gisin & Gama, 1962 and S. lusitanica Gama, 1964 by dense macrochaetotaxy of head with mac M 4i, S4, Pa4 present, Th II with about 10 medio-central mac (m1‒2 complex) and PmA and PmC groups with 11‒13 and 10‒13 mac, respectively; and Th III‒Abd IV with at least 16, 9, 5, 1 and 16 central mac, respectively ( Tab. 2). However, S. pini differs from these species by head with mac Pp6 present (absent in other species), Th II with up to 13 medio-central mac (10 in S. squamoornata and S. lusitanica , 11 in S. saxatilis ) and PmA and PmC groups with up to 14 and 13 mac respectively (12 or less PmA mac in S. squamoornata and S. lusitanica , and less than PmC 11 mac in others species); Th III with 16‒18 central mac (15 in S. saxatilis , 24 in S. lusitanica ), and Abd IV with up to 17 central mac (16 in S. lusitanica and S. saxatilis ). Other comparisons among species are presented in Tables 1 and 2.
Seira pini may have different color patterns in populations ( Figs 2E‒G View FIGURE 2 ). Specimens of Monegros (Zaragoza) are similar to the species of the type locality, except for the pigmentation of the trochanters and femora and the dorsal rearrangement that extends until Abd III. Species from this same population may still have total dorsal depigmentation of Th II to Abd III, and partially of Abd IV, remaining in the latter case a central spot of dark pigment .
