Abstract:

During biospeological surveys of caves and mines in Luxembourg an unusual and probably troglobiontic new species of Sciaridae was detected. With the aid of DNA barcoding and morphological characters, it could be assigned to the genus Camptochaeta Hippa & Vilkamaa, 1994, with the troglophilic species Camptochaeta ofenkaulis (Lengersdorf, 1925) being its closest relative.
