Kurt, Kemal; Kurt, Pınar
A new species, Dicranolasma gumushanensissp. n., is described from the Gümüşhane Province of the northeastern region of Turkey, based on morphological and genetic evidence. The newly described species differs from similar species within the genus, particularly due to morphological characteristics such as the structure of the chelicerae and genitalia, and its molecular characteristics. A detailed description and diagnostic characteristics of the new species are provided, in addition to images of its body in dorsal view, chelicerae, pedipalps and genitalia. The nuclear (28S rRNA) and mitochondrial (COI) gene regions of the species were sequenced, revealing its phylogenetic relationships within the genus Dicranolasma. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:1C3512F0-4ED4-4B60-A0FC-65EF62173573.
