Abstract
Among the 27 species of micro-whipscorpions (Arachnida: Palpigradi) recorded in Europe so far, 23 occur in caves and comparable subterranean habitats. Only one introduced and three native species dwell the pore system of plant-bearing soil. The project deals with the taxonomy (including the description of a new species), the distribution, and the phenology of these edaphic Palpigradi.
