Remarks. Stigmaeus fimus sp. nov. closely resembles S. silvestris Khaustov, 2014 and S. uzunolukensis Özçelik & Doğan, 2011 in having two pairs of setae on the central shield, similar dorsal ornamentation and the same leg setation; however, the new species is much bigger (680 (657–677) long, 456 (420–450) wide vs. 468 (420–470) long 325 (300–320) wide in S. silvestris ); lower ratio ve / sci (1.9 in the new species vs. 3.0 in S. silvestris ); setae elcp and elcl spine-like vs. seta-like in S. silvestris ( Khaustov 2014) .
The new species can be distinguished from S. uzunolukensis by the distinctly bigger body size (length of body 680 (657–677), width 456 (420–450) in the new species vs. length 322 (300–350), width 171 (150–200) in S. uzunolukensis ); setae c 2 longer than ve in the new species vs. not longer in S. uzunolukensis ; setae sci much longer than that of S. uzunolukensis (71 (66–76) in the new species vs. 22 (18–25) in S. uzunolukensis ); lower ratio ve / sci (1.9 in the new species vs. 3.1 in S. uzunolukensis ); dorsal idiosomal setae not widened distally in the new species vs. most dorsal idiosomal setae, especially e 1, f 1, h 1, h 2, distinctly widened distally in S. uzunolukensis ( Özçelik & Doğan 2011) .
