Isotomidae of Japan and the Asiatic part of Russia. I. Folsomia ‘inoculata’ group

摘要

The paper considers blind species of the genus Folsomia having two pairs of macrosetae on both meso- and metathorax and united in so-called ‘inoculata’ group, which is given a new, more laconic definition. Morphological characters important in the group’s taxonomy are discussed and a further division into four subgroups is proposed. Eight new species, i.e., F. amurica Potapov & Kuznetsova, >sp. n., F. breviseta Potapov & Kuznetsova, >sp. n., F. calcarea Potapov, >sp. n., F. imparis Potapov & Hasegawa, >sp. n., F. laconica Potapov & Kuznetsova, >sp. n., F. tertia Potapov, >sp. n., F. trisensilla Potapov, >sp. n., and F. tubulata Potapov & Babenko, >sp. n., are described. F. hidakana Uchida & Tamura and F. inoculata Stach are redescribed basing on new material, for the latter species the Stach’s individuals were also examined. A key to species of the group is given.
