Abstract
Six new schizomid species are described from caves in Western Australia. Draculoides julianneae sp. novo is restricted to a single cave on the western coastal regions of Cape Range peninsula, whereas D. brooksi sp. novo is only known from a borehole driven into limestone below fixed red sand dunes on the northern side of the peninsula. Bamazomus vespertinus sp. novo and B. subsolanus sp. novo are sister-species found in caves on the coastal plain on the western and eastern side of Cape Range peninsula. Bamazomus hunti sp. novo is described from The Tunnel, a cave in the Oscar Range in the southern Kimberley, whereas Apozomus eberhardi is described from Old Napier Downs Cave in the Napier Range, also in the southern Kimberley. Two further species of Apozomus, A. howarthi sp. novo and A. volschenki sp. nov., are described from caves in the Chillagoe region of northern Queensland.
