Figs 1 , 6 ; Table 3

Material examined

SERBIA • 1 ♂, 1 ♀; southwestern Serbia, Pešter Plateau, town of Tutin, village of Đerekare , Zmijove Doline , Četiri Asa Pit ; 22 Jul. 2007; Miloš Kuraica leg.; IZFB .

New finding

As comparative material we had a sample of the genus Remyella at our disposal, which was collected at a subterranean site on the Pešter Plateau in southwestern Serbia and belongs to the species R. hussoni . This sample (one male and one female) was gathered 18 years ago in the Četiri Asa Pit (Zmijove Doline, village of Đerekare, near the town of Tutin). This species is known from a number of caves and pits in the village of Đerekare (where the type locality of the new species is also located) ( Njunjić et al. 2017), but so far it has not been found in the aforementioned pit.
