( Figs. 5 View FIGURES 5 6 11)
Material examined
Holotype male: stream in Valle de las Pinturas, Lihue Calel National Park, La Pampa Province, 9 November 1999 ( MBR). Paratypes: 1 male, 1 female ( ZMAN), 2 females ( MBR), same data as holotype; 1 male, 1 female ( MBR), 2 females ( ZMAN), small stream Cerro Fortaleza, Lihue Calel National Park, La Pampa Province, 9 November 1999. Other material: 6 nymphs, same data as holotype.
Description
Male: body 680 (697964) long and 567 (530729) wide. Integument with small papillae. Dorsum with one posteriorly located platelet, 90 long and 108 wide. First coxal plates separated; suture line between first and second coxal plates incomplete. Glandula Limnesiae located near anterior margin of third coxal plates ( Fig. 5 View FIGURES 5 6 ). Genital field with three pairs of acetabula, located on two beanshaped genital flaps ( Fig. 6 View FIGURES 5 6 ). Pre and postgenital sclerites small, not fused with genital flap. Lengths of PIPV: 34, 92, 54, 123, 38. PII with a short peglike seta inserted on a short tubercle. PIV with four small tubercles, each with a hairlike seta ( Fig. 7 View FIGURES 7 9 ). Three of these tubercles are located on the ventral margin of PIV, and one tubercle is located on medial side of segment. Lengths of Ileg46: 96, 110, 198. Legs IIII with claws and a small clawlet. Lengths of IVleg46: 164, 194, 198. IVleg6 slightly bowed ( Fig. 8 View FIGURES 7 9 ), with small simple claws, without clawlet and a terminal seta, 80 long. IVleg5 with serrated setae ( Fig. 9 View FIGURES 7 9 ).
Female: body 810 (7941037) long and 624 (616842) wide. Dorsum with one posteriorly located platelet, 116 long and 131 wide (Fig. 10). First coxal plates separated, suture line between first and second coxal plates incomplete. Glandula Limnesiae located near anterior margin of third coxal plates (Fig. 11). Genital field with three pairs of acetabula. Genital field 810 long and 162 wide. Pregenitalsclerite 95 wide. Lengths of PIPV: 40, 124, 84, 164, 48; palp as in male. Lengths of Ileg46: 136, 156, 145. Lengths of IVleg 46: 219, 284, 284. IVleg6 as in male, with a 64 long terminal seta.
Etymology
Named for its occurrence in the pampa.
Figures 1011. Protolimnesia pampaensis sp. nov., paratype female, 10, dorsal view; 11, ventral view. Scale lines 200 µm.
Remarks
The new species is very similar to P. longa Besch , a hyporheic species, known from the holotype male only. Protolimnesia longa has larger tubercles on PIV (see below). Moreover, the claws of IVleg6 are larger in P. longa than in the new species, and the terminal seta of this segment serrated and is shorter than in the new species.
