ABSTRACT. Carpathonesticus borutzkyi (Reimoser, 1930), known previously from Turkey and Abkhazia, has been recorded from the Crimea for the first time. The finding of C. borutzkyi is the first record of Nesticidae in the Crimea, representing also the northernmost locality of the species range. The species is redescribed and illustrated on the basis of Crimean specimens. РЕЗЮМЕ. В Крыму обнаружен Carpathonesticus borutzkyi (Reimoser, 1930), ранее известный только из Турции и Абхазии. Крым самое северное место обитания этого вида. C. borutzkyi это первый представитель семейства Nesticidae, найденный в Крыму. Он впервые отмечен в фауне Украины. C. borutzkyi переописан по экземплярам из Крыма.

Introduction
Only two species of Nesticidae have been recorded from Ukraine: Nesticus cellulanus (Clerck, 1758) and Carpathonesticus galotshkae Evtushenko, 1993 [Evtushenko, 1993; Mikhailov, 1997]. Until recently, the nesticids have been unknown from the Crimea [Kovblyuk, 2004]. The genus Carpathonesticus Lehtinen et Saaristo, 1980 contains 21 described species inhabiting caves of Italy, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Romania, the Ukrainian East Carpathians, Turkey and the Caucasus [Platnick, 2007]. Most Carpathonesticus species are limited in their distribution to the Carpathians. Therefore, it was surprising to find the species Carpathonesticus borutzkyi (Reimoser, 1930), previously known from Turkey and Abkhazia, in the Crimea. Large distribution ranges are unusual for Carpathonesticus species. This paper provides a brief redescription of this interesting species.

Specimens were recently collected in the Crimea by the second author, and are deposited in the Zoology Department of the V.I. Vernadsky Taurida National University, Simferopol, Ukraine, Dr. M.M. Kovblyuk (TNU). Legs and palpal segments were measured after separation from the cephalothorax. Coloration was described from specimens preserved in 75% ethanol/water solution with added glycerin (9:1 by volume). Most of the terms for descriptions of the copulatory organs have been adopted from Lehtinen & Saaristo [1980] and Bosselaers [1998]. The following abbreviations are used in the illustrations: c conductor; co copulatory orifice; e embolus; g vulval gland; pc paracymbium; ta terminal apophysis; te tegular apophysis; vp vulval pocket. All measurements are in mm. All scale bars 0.1 mm.
