Male genitalia (Figs 20–24). Aedeagus relatively large, strongly sclerotized. Tegmen short. Median lobe of aedeagus subparallel-sided, enlarged medially, at apex distinctly bilobed in dorsal view (Fig. 21), regularly arched in lateral view (Fig. 22). Basal lamina of median lobe short, moderately expanded proximally. Apical portion of aedeagus modified as in Figs 21 and 23 (all males were dissected), widely dilated, bilobed and arcuately emarginate. Parameres long and very thin, never reaching the aedeagal apex, preapically sinuous, only slightly thickened caudally, armed with 3 setae (Fig. 24). Internal sac of aedeagus feebly indicated, without basal sclerites, hyaline. Female unknown. DERIVATION OF NAME. The generic name Nauticiella gen. n. (feminine in gender) is derived from the Latin noun “nautici” (= the swimmers) in apposition, referring to the amphibiontic way of life of the new species in various cave habitats. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS. According to the generic classification of the world Leioidae by Newton (1998) the tribe Leptodirini consists of seven subtribes.
