Abstract

We present the initial results of terrestrial cave fauna from Cova des Pas de Vallgornera. The results are: first appointment for the Balearic Islands of the oribatid mite Atropacarus phyllophorus (Berlese, 1904), first record of Sinella (Coecobrya) tenebricosa Folsom, 1902 (Collembola: Entomobryidae) from Mallorca Island, new data about the distribution of Neelus murinus Folsom, 1896 on the Balearic Islands, as well as a review on the distribution of the endemic and troglobious Polyxénida Lophoprocyus pagesi Condè, 1982. In addition, we present the second record in Spain of Campodea subdives Silvestre, 1932, a rare Mediterranean species of Diplura.
