Remarks. The species was described by Petrova (1969) under the name of Porolohmannella curvimandibulata . Bartsch (1996a) moved this species into the genus Lohmannella . This species is simiar to L. cvetkovi and L. stammeri . The idiosoma is more elongate than that in L. cvetkovi . AD is rectangular with round anterior and concave posterior margins. Chelicera is strongly bending. Bartsch (2007b) suggested to re-examine the specific status of L. curvimandibulata, L. cvetkovi, and L. stammerii . Female, male, and nymphs (stages are unclear) are known.

Habitat. Inland freshwater: In spring and well.
