Description
<p>This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Antić, Dragan Ž., Rađa, Tonći, Makarov, Slobodan E. (2018): Dalmatosomatidae, a new monotypic family, and Dalmatosoma agaricum gen. et sp. nov. (Diplopoda: Chordeumatida: Craspedosomatidea) from Croatia, Balkan Peninsula. Zootaxa 4403 (2): 289-306, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4403.2.4</p><p>Abstract</p><p>A new millipede species, Dalmatosoma agaricum gen. et sp. nov., is described from a cave in Dalmatia (Croatia). The new taxon is clearly unique among chordeumatidans in both anterior and posterior gonopod structure and shows some noteworthy habitus features. We therefore here establish a new monotypic family, viz., Dalmatosomatidae, for the given taxon and place it within the suborder Craspedosomatidea. The new family is briefly discussed and compared with all oth- er chordeumatidans.</p>
