A new species of Troglopedetes Joseph, called Troglopedetes eberhardi sp. nov., is described and illustrated in this article. It shares similarities with other species in terms of eye presence and the arrangement of chaetotaxy along the body, but differs in certain features such as head chaetotaxy, fourth abdominal segment, and an elongated unguis median tooth. This is the first record of Troglopedetes in Australia, adding to the current total of 37 nominal species, nine of which have eyes.
A new species of Troglopedetes Joseph from a Christmas Island Cave, Australia is described and illustrated here. Troglopedetes eberhardi sp. nov. resembles other species by presence of eyes and dorsal chaetotaxy of the second thoracic segment to third abdominal segment, but differs in head chaetotaxy, fourth abdominal segment and elongated unguis median tooth, which character is documented here in the genus for the first time. A comparison and identification key for all eyed species is provided. This is the first record of Troglopedetes for Australia and the genus now has 37 nominal species, of which nine have eyes.
