            <p>Ecology.</p>
            <p> Troglopedetes rungsimae sp. nov. is only known from a small chamber in the dark zone of a cave. Specimens were found as small populations in an oligotrophic habitat, i.e. on the wall and ground with a very humid and wet environment, without any trace of organic matter. Air temperature in the chamber where specimens were collected was 23.5-24.8 °C, soil temperature was 23.1-23.3 °C and relative humidity was 88-91%. </p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> The species is named in honour of Rungsima Tanthalakha, the Senior Program Director, Research Management and Innovation Management, National Science and Technology Develoment Agency, Thailand, who is interested in karst and cave biodiversity and for her contributions to the study of cave  Troglopedetes in Thailand. </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Troglopedetes rungsimae sp. nov. has the sixth most elongated antennae of the  Troglopedetes species of Thailand (Table 3) after  T. spectabilis sp. nov.,  T. multispinosus Deharveng &amp; Gers, 1993,  T. longicornis Deharveng &amp; Gers, 1993,  T. takensis sp. nov. and  T. microps Deharveng &amp; Gers, 1993. It is similar to  T. dispersus Deharveng &amp; Gers, 1993 (which has been recorded from two caves in Kanchanaburi province: Tham Lawa and Tham Kaew), in the absence of eyes, and the dorsal macrochaetotaxy of the central head (with A, C, E mac). However, it differs from it by its longer antennae (almost 1 versus 0.6 time shorter than the body), outer maxillary lobe chaetotaxy (1 vs 2), chaetae on lateral flap of the ventral tube (8+8 versus 7+7), and higher ratio of dens: mucro (9.1 vs 8.5). </p>
            <p> In the same cave, we found another morphotype with a different claw morphology. This type has thin, smooth and clavate tenent hair on all tita (one pointed on Claw I). Claw is long and slender with 2 strong inner teeth, one tooth at 57-73% of inner edge and the other at a 90-91% of inner edge, and a pair of inner basal teeth of unequal size. One small tooth is at 40% on the outer edge. Unguiculus is pointed, narrow, lanceolate and elongate, about 0.65 time shorter than the claw, and its external edge is with 7 toothlets (Fig. 14I). However, its dorsal chaetotaxy is the same as  T. rungsimae sp. nov. Unfortunately, the material available is not sufficient to described it in detail. </p>

            <p>Ecology.</p>
            <p> Troglopedetes spectabilis sp. nov. exclusively inhabits a chamber in the dark zone of a cave. Specimens were found in an oligotrophic habitat with a very humid and wet environment on muddy ground. The air temperature in the chamber was 23.5-24.3 °C, soil temperature was 22.9-23.1 °C and the relative humidity was 84%. The cave is undisturbed and rather difficult to access (due to the steep slope up to the entrance). It is located in dry evergreen forest mixed with bamboo forest at moderate altitude (426 m. asl.). Some simple infastructure has been introduced into the cave, including a metal ladder at the entrance. </p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> The species name is derived from the Latin word spectabilis, meaning  “remarkable” or  “admirable” and referring to its extremely long antennae. </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Troglopedetes spectabilis sp. nov. is the most highly troglomorphic species of  Troglopedetes . It is clearly distinct from other species of the genus by the extreme length of its appendages, especially the antennae (the ratio of antenna: head is 5.5), by its claw complex and by its furca (Table 1). Chaetae m2 and l1 of labial basis are smooth whereas they are ciliated in all other described species in the country. Central area of head has A, B, D, G macrochaetae. Dens of  T. spectabilis sp. nov. is very long with 40-46 internal spines and 4 psp, while the other species of the genus in Thailand have only 2 psp. A most unexpected character of this species is the very different claw morphology of leg I-II and leg III checked in several specimens, which may have taxonomic and evolutionary implication that will be discussed in future works. </p>

            <p>Ecology.</p>
            <p> T. takensis sp. nov. is only known from a large chamber in the dark zone of a cave. Specimens were found as small populations in an oligotrophic habitat, i.e. on the wall and ground surface, with a very humid and wet environment, with small trace of organic matter. Air temperature in the chamber was 22.2-23.0 °C, soil temperature was 21.9 °C and the relative humidity was 85%. </p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p>The species name is derived from the name of the province (Tak) where it was found.</p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Troglopedetes takensis sp. nov. has elongated antennae (the ratio of antenna: head is 3.2), legs and furca (Table 2), but shorter than in  T. spectabilis sp. nov. It presents two distinct black small eye-patches on each side and lacks central mac on the head. Claws usually have only one uneven inner basal tooth (with 2 specimens without uneven inner tooth on claw III).  T. takensis sp. nov. shares with  T. calvus Deharveng &amp; Gers, 1993 the absence of central mac on head. However, the new species differs from  T. calvus in size (1.9-2.0 vs 0.9-1.4), presence of eyes-patches (2+2 vs 0), length of antenna (1,274-1,524  µm vs 747  µm ), tenent hair (pointed vs clavate), inner teeth of claw ((0)1 vs 2), internal row of dental spines (33-40 vs 14-32). </p>
