Wingless.</p> <p>Abdomen: Maximum width at sternite VII (the 5 th visible); tergites with confluent punctuation and microsculpture composed of transverse meshes in the intersegmental membrane. Male: sternite VIII with a glabrous anterior strip with microsculpture as in figure 4, and the posterior margin with a relatively broad U-shaped incision, surrounded by a small glabrous area; genital segment in ventral view as in figure 5a. Female: with a large glabrous area in the centre of the genital segment in dorsal view; ventral view as in figure 5b.</p> <p>Legs: elongate, forelegs with antennal cleaning organ composed by two complementary scooped-out structures located on the femur and tibia.</p> <p>Aedeagus (fig. 6): with fused lateral lobes (fig. 6c); ellipse-shaped in dorsal view, presenting a v-shaped scletotized blade covering the upper part and the apical edge of the aedeagus (Fig. 6b); a well sclerotized ventral blade, with a pointed apex, not exceeding the edge of the aedeagus; median lobe with two internal small finger-like structures and internal sac with two plates of scales (fig. 6a,b).</p> <p>Etymology. The specific epithet is related to the distribution of the species, which is located in the Lusitanic biospeleological district in the centre of Portugal.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BC87DD4333FF83FF6FA6A0FD4AB994	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

All these species are found in the northwest part of the Iberian Peninsula and are easily recognized by the development of the aedeagus ventral blade (see key for details). Two morpho-ecological adaptive main tendencies are observed within the subterranean species, and as it would be expected the hypogean species are generally bigger and the endogean smaller (Table 1). The boundary between subterranean and surface dwelling is sometimes difficult to define (Culver &amp; Pipan 2009), this is the main reason why some species found under buried stones have formerly been considered as epigean species. The clear troglobiomorphism present in all Lathromene species (e.g., reduced eyes, body elongation) and their restricted distributions lead us to consider them as a subterranean, Iberian endemic subgenus of Domene.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BC87DD4337FF81FF6FA0D7FBA1B9FA	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
