Descripción
Sumario:[eng] The terrestrial isopod Platyarthrus parisii Arcangeli, 1930 (Oniscidea: Platyarthridae), a myrmecophilous species, is recorded for the first time at continental Europe. All the specimens studied come from different locations in the south of the Iberian Peninsula (Cádiz, Tarifa and Jerez de la Frontera, in the region of Andalusia, Spain). Besides, some morphological traits of this species are illustrated for the first time. Differences with Platyarthrus schoblii Budde-Lund, 1885, of which it was considered a subspecies, are discussed. The validity of the current subspecies Platyarthrus schoblii intermedius Vandel, 1946 is also discussed.
