Abstract
. A new species of woodlice, Caucas-ocyphoniscus taitii sp.n. (Trichoniscidae), is described from the Utrish State Nature Reserve located at the Black Sea coast of the northwestern Caucasus west of Novorossiysk. This is the first terrestrial species from the troglobiont genus Caucasocyphoniscus Borutzky, 1948. A new diagnosis of the genus is provided. Diagnostic features of the new species as well as affinities within the genus are discussed.
