Kunstidamaeus ladislavmikoi sp. nov. is described; this species differs from Kunstidamaeus fragilis by the larger body size, having small, tubercle-like propodolateral apophyses (sometimes absent), and the presence of epimeral and ventrosejugal tubercles and tubercle-like of prodorsobasal tubercles Ba and La and parastigmatic apophyses Sp, and setiform, medium-length dorsal notogastral setae. Damaeus bacillum and Epidamaeus kamaensis are combined to Kunstidamaeus. A supplementary description of Kunstidamaus bacillum comb. nov. is presented. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:7806547B-BCBE-430C-AD7A-568AF685FABF
