Well, good news. I found in 7th June 2011 near my home a new species for Portugal. This species was found near Lugo by Geller-Grim in 1995 and he described the new species in 1997.
In 2011 I found another female (the second ever known..) and I managed to take the first alive photos of this species. Hdrasky has some males (and maybe females) from Spain. He will describe the male, new for Science (most likely for the next year).
This finding of P. stukei will be cited this year.

ID by Eric Fisher.

So a female of P. stukei alive
