| Abstract : | Two subterranean species of genus Niphargus Schiödte, 1849 (Amphipoda, fam. Niphargidae) are studied: Niphargus angelieri Ruffo 1954 known from SW France [locus typicus: Le Boulou, Pyrenees Orientales, France] is mentioned, and new subspecies, Niphargus angelieri ariegei, ssp. nov. from Cave Tuc d`Audoubert, near Montesquieu-Avantes, (Dept. Ariege, Pyrenee-Orientales, France) is discovered and described. The species Niphargus (Niphargus) podpecanus S. Karaman 1952, known from several localities in Slovenia [locus typicus: Podpeška Jama cave, Slovenia] is mentioned. The specimens from eljnske jame Cave, eljne, Kočevje (Slovenia), separated from N. podpecanus as a new species by Delić et al. (2017) based on the molecular/genetic data only, Niphargus gottscheeanensis Delić et al. 2017, are here morphologically described and drawn. Taxonomical and morphological characters and value of these taxa are discussed. |
