| abstract | A brief review of the Megeremaeus species of the world fauna is given, the synonymy of Ctenobelba (Aokibelba) rameus (Wen et Zhao 1993) comb. n. = C. (A.) polysetosa (Aoki et Yamamoto 2000) syn. n. is established. A description of the new species Megeremaeus sikhotealinus sp.n., found in the Sikhote-Alin Mountains, is provided. The trichobothria in the new species are slightly expanded in the distal third, placed on a long stalk and covered with small setulae. Interlamellar setae are barbed, blunt at the end and half as long as trichobothria. The translamellar ridge in the lower basal part is well-developed, there is a thin ridge connecting the cusps of lamellae together and to the ends of the tutoria. Notogastral setae are covered with sparse hairs, many of them reaching or exceeding the bases of the following posterior setae. There are 2 pairs of anal setae. The discidium is pointed. Accessory seta d on genua I–III is blunt, slightly expanded in the middle part and covered with small setulae. |
