Abstract

Two species from the family Orsolobidae and one from Mecysmaucheniidae are reported from the Falkland Islands, with local distributions and descriptions. A new species of Orsolobidae, Osornolobus otariorum sp. nov., is described. The description and diagnosis of species in Osornolobus is discussed and the association between the three species and vegetation communities is analysed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
