Idiosoma rugose, anteriorly much wider than posteriorly. Posterior idiosoma split in a dorsal and ventral part, only visible in lateral view; lateral margin of ventral part fringed with stout setae. Dorsum with six dorsal plates; large anterior plate with a pair of postocularia, large posterior plate with two pairs of glandularia, anterolateral plates with one glandularium, posterolateral plates without glandularia; one glandularia platelet lying free between lateral and posterior plates. Posterior to posterior dorsal plates a small concavity with a petiole-like structure. Eyes absent. Coxal suture lines incomplete. Anterior to fourth leg sockets a rounded lateral extension. Near gonopore two ventral flaps, and split-like gonopore hidden under these flaps. Acetabula numerous. Posterior idiosoma margin ventrally with a median cleft. Fourth legs very heavy.</p><p>Type species. Zelandaturus magnipes n. sp.</p><p>Etymology. The name is derived from New Zealand and the family name Aturidae .</p><p>Remarks. The new genus is in having a posterior idiosoma extension somewhat similar to Tryssaturopsis Cook, but the latter genus lacks a free dorsal glandularia platelet while IV-leg-2 and -4 are modified. In Cook (1983) the new genus keys out as Omegaturus Cook, which has II-leg-2 also elongated and the presence of a free dorsal glandularia platelet. However, this genus has extremely elongated palpal segments, lacks a sexual modification of the legs and projections associated with the fourth legs are much more expanded. In the notoaturine species Piotaturus alvecaudatus Cook, 1983 and Piotaturus bovalus Cook, 1983 the male gonopore is hidden also by a flap.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CF87FCED08350B70C898DFF8E6F802	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(Figs 1A–G)</p><p>Type material. Holotype male, Camping Gully stream near Rakaia Gorge, hyporheic, South Island, New Zealand, 43º 31.608 S 171º 40.345 E, alt. 282 m asl, 19-xii-2014, leg. H. Smit.</p><p>Diagnosis. As for genus.</p><p>Description. Male: Idiosoma ventrally 664 long, dorsally 579 long and 421 wide. Anterior large plate 202 long, posterior large plate 243 long. Posterior idiosoma margin dorsally with two rounded extensions. Glandularia of fourth coxae near suture line of third and fourth coxae. At level of fourth leg sockets a pair of glandularia. Numerous acetabula located near posterior idiosoma margin, some appear larger than others, but acetabula hard to discern. Ventrally in posterolateral corners a group of setae. Capitulum 108 long, anchoral process short. Length of P1-5: 34, 78, 52, 106, 48. P1 elongated; P2 ventrally and medially with a group of needle-like setae; P3 with two thin dorsal setae, P4 slender, ventrally with two long setae. Length of II-leg-2-6: 68, 45, -, 74, 56. II-leg-1 ventrally with one and dorsally with two long, curved setae, II-leg-2 elongated and dorsally with one long curved seta, II-leg-3 with a ventrodistal long, stout seta, dorsally with two feathered setae. I- and III-leg not modified. Length of IV-leg-4-6: 140, 128, 60. Fourth leg compared to other legs very heavy; IV-leg-2-5 ventrally with curved long setae.</p><p>Female: Unknown.</p><p>Etymology. Named for the very heavy fourth legs.</p><p>Remarks. The new species is one of the many hyporheic species found in New Zealand. Cook (1983) listed 37 hyporheic species in 20 genera. Pesic et al (2010) listed another hyporheic genus and seven hyporheic species More than half of the 21 hyporheic genera are Notoaturinae.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CF87FCED0A350970C89DFFF9A1FCF4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
