Again, no record is higher than 3000 m, the lowest, as already indicated by Wunderlich (1974), no lower than 1700 m, but these belong well to the subtropical belt. In general, Oedothorax in Nepal shows no clear-cut affinities to Palaearctic climate and biotopes, and it is to be questioned how close the affinities to the true Palaearctic species set of the genus really are. Holo- and the majority of paratypes have been deposited in the Senckenberg Museum, Frankfurt a. M. (SMF), some duplicate paratypes have become part of the collections of the Zoological Museum of the Moscow State University, Moscow (ZMMU) and Zoologisches Forschungsinstitut und Museum A. Koenig, Bonn (ZFMK). The following abbreviations have been accepted in the text and figures: Ti — tibia, Mt — metatarsus, Tm I — position of the metatarsal trichobothrium, AME — anter- ior, and PME — posterior median eyes, respectively. Chaetotaxy is given in the following formula: refers to the number of dorsal spines on Ti I —IV. The sequence of leg segments in the measurement data is as follows: femur + patella + tibia + metatarsus + tarsus. All measurements are given hereinafter in mm. Scale — mm, if not otherwise Figs 1 — 5: Oedothorax assuetus n. sp., male and female paratypes. — 1) male carapace (lateral view); 2) right palp; 3) palpal tibia (dorsal view); 4) male abdomen (dorsal view); 5) Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Zoologisches Forschungsinstitut und Museum Alexander Koenig.
