The knowledge of palpigrades in Cuba is limited to the species Eukoenenia orghidani, discovered and described from Cueva de Bellamar. In this work, a survey for palpigrades in the suburbs of La Habana, Cuba revealed three species, Eukoenenia berlesei, Eukoenenia florenciae and a new species described here as Eukoenenia glandulosa sp. nov. Interestingly, the three species coexist in the microspaces of wet soil. A total of 16 arthropod species were identified living in the same microhabitat as the palpigrades.
古巴的栉足虫知识仅限于在贝拉马尔洞穴发现并描述的物种 Eukoenenia orghidani。在这项工作中,对古巴哈瓦那郊区的栉足虫进行了调查,发现了三种物种,即 Eukoenenia berlesei、Eukoenenia florenciae 和一种新物种,这里描述为 Eukoenenia glandulosa sp. nov. 有趣的是,这三种物种共存于湿润土壤的微空间中。共有 16 种节肢动物被鉴定为与栉足虫生活在同一微生境中。
