Abstract

Furculanurida tropicalia sp. nov., is described from leaf litter of the Atlantic forest of Southeast Brazil. It is characterized as being the first species of the genus that possess 8+8 eyes. New diagnosis and remarks on the genus and the species of Furculanurida are made. The species Stachorutes arlei is transferred once more from Furculanurida to Stachorutes.
