To date 7 species were known: Leptus (Leptus) berlesei (Oudemans, 1913), L. (L.) gyas Fain & Amico, 1997, L. (L.) josifovi Beron, 1975, L. (L.) molochinus (C. L. Koch, 1837), L. (L.) phalangii (de Geer, 1778), L. (L.) pyreanaeus André, 1953 and L. (L.) trimaculatus (Rossi, 1794) (André, 1953, Fain & Amico, 1997, Haitlinger, 2007a, Beron, 2008, Mąkol & Wohltmann, 2012). Now 8th species, L. (L.) killingtoni Turk, 1945 is found. The genus Podothrombium Berlese, 1910 is widespread in Europe but no species were known from Montenegro. In this paper, the first record of P. tymoni Haitlinger, 1994 is reported. Arknotrombium arknesianum Haitlinger, 2007 was known only from a single specimen from Montenegro. Now, the second record of this very rare species is noted. New metric data for A. arknesianum and P. tymoni and corrected meristic data for A. arknesianum are given. The terminology and abbreviations follow Robaux (1977) and Mąkol (2007). Leptus (Leptus) killingtoni Turk, 1945 Material examined: France, Bretagne, L’Arcouest n. Paimpol (48º49’N, 3º01’W), 7.07.2015, 1 larva; leg. R. Haitlinger. This species is restricted to west Europe and was found in Azores Islands (Portugal), England and Spain (Galicia) (Turk, 1945, Haitlinger, 2006, Lorenzo-Carballa et al., 2011) and France (Bretagne) (this study). Podothrombium tymoni Haitlinger, 1994 Material examined: Montenegro, Žabljak (43º09’N, 19º06’E), 2.08.2014, 1 larva; leg. M. Šundić. This species is known from middle, east and south Europe. It was found in Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Italy, Poland and Slovenia (Mąkol & Wohltmann, 2012). First record from Montenegro. Measurements for this species and meristic data were given for holotype from Austria and some specimens from Poland (Haitlinger, 1994, 1995, Mąkol. 2005). In this paper new measurements of specimens from Czech Republic, Italy, Montenegro and Slovenia are given (Table 1).

M. Šundić. It is very rare species known from a single specimen from Skadar Lake area (Arknes) in Montenegro (Haitlinger, 2007b). New metric data for the second specimen are given in Table 2. In original description hypostomalae mistakenly are drawn as long and nude setae. Ventral part of gnathosoma in holotype is very Ecol. Mont., 5, 2016, 62-65 63 NEW RECORDS OF TROMBIDIFORMES FROM FRANCE AND MONTENEGRO badly visible and some structure were recognized as hypostomalae. In second specimen hypostomalae are very well visible: they are short, bifurcating with about 7 “fingers”. Some corrected data for holotype (legs formula, palptibia, palptarsus) were given by Hatlinger (2013) but correct formula for palptarus is: 1ω, 1ζ, 3 (2B, 1N). Table 2.
