Resumen

En este trabajo se documenta por primera vez el hallazgo de ejemplares de un crustáceo (Malacostraca, Bathynellacea) que vive exclusivamente en las aguas subterráneas de todo el mundo, en un hábitat inusual: el medio subterráneo superficial (MSS), un medio terrestre sin luz y saturado de humedad. Especímenes de la familia Parabathynellidae han sido encontrados en dispositivos de muestreo dispuestos para la recogida de fauna subterránea terrestre en el MSS del Parque Nacional de la Sierra de Guadarrama (Madrid, España). Se han identificado dos especies, de dos géneros diferentes, Hexabathynella nicoleiana Camacho, 1986 y Hexaiberobathynella mateusi (Galhano, 1967), mediante estudio morfológico. Las secuencias del gen 18S de varios ejemplares confirman su adscripción genérica. Estas especies eran ya conocidas en la provincia de Madrid.

Ref. (1143/2014). We would like to thank the staff at the National Park who kindly helped us with the permission applications and other formalities, and to those who also helped us with the fieldwork, especially Patricia Riquelme, Pablo Sanjuanbenito, Juan A. Vielva, Javier Donés, Marisol Redondo, Ignacio Granados, Ángel Rubio, César Martín, José Carrillo, Miguel Ángel Palomar, Ángel Velasco, Germán Mato, Manuel Criado, Enrique Calvo, Federico Madejón, Montserrat Sanz, and forestry agents of Buitrago de Lozoya. Thanks also to our colleagues who collaborated in the design of the samplings and the fieldwork, such as Alberto Jiménez Valverde, Gonzalo Pérez Suárez, Enrique Baquero, Alberto Sendra, Pablo Barranco, Alberto Tinaut, Rafael Jordana, Luis Subías, Juan José Herrero–Borgoñón, Enrique Ledesma, José D. Gilgado, Douglas Zeleppelini and Javier Ledesma. We gratefully acknowledge C. Puch, I. Rey and A. Casado who helped us in different ways and many thanks to Damian Jaume who reviewed the English.
