Abstract
A new species of pseudoscorpion, Withius leggi sp. n. is described on the basis of two adults found in the Daniel cave, northern Iran. Illustrations of its diagnostic characters are provided. The genital structure of the new species is compared with that of the most similar species, Withius piger (Simon, 1878), a cosmopolitan species. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:EE9DACC7-FC30-4290-B339-57119E421516
