Abstract

Two new cavernicolous Scydmaeninae, Euconnus (Tetramelus) longipedes n. sp. and Scydmoraphes speluncarius n. sp. are described from the island of Mljet, Croatia. Records of all Scydmoraphes known so far from the Adriatic coast are discussed. Scydmoraphes leptocerus (Reitter, 1883) is recorded for the first time from Montenegro.
