Scutigerella hauserae is a species of symphylan myriapod found in Slovenia. [a] [1] It was described by Ulf Scheller, a Swedish entemologist, in 1990. [2] It is known from Postojnska Jama, a cave system in Slovenia. [2] [3] It has several physical adaptations which may make it more suited for trogloniontic (cave) life. [2]

Notes

  1. ↑ The type locality is given as Yugoslavia: Postojnska jama. Postojnska jama is the Slovene word for Postojna Cave, a karst system in southwestern Slovenia. The type locality is therefore in present-day Slovenia.
