dc.description.abstract | "A newly discovered cyphophthalmid opilionid from a cave in Kenya is the first member of the suborder from East Africa, and exhibits a combination of characters not known from any other species. It cannot be placed at this time in any of the described families of the suborder. The species seems to have affinities with the Sironidae, a Holarctic group. The families Sironidae and Pettalidae are thought to be sister groups making up the superfamily Sironoidea, and the species Marwe coarctata, described here as new, is perhaps the sister group of the two families"--P.
