“…This species is strictly associated with tree microhabitats, which was confirmed by many findings under tree bark, in tree hollows and dead wood (beier, 1963;CHristopHoryová et al, 2017bCHristopHoryová et al, , 2018MaCHač et al, 2018;novák et al, 2019). It is also recorded from bird nests, ant nests, leaf litter, soil (CHristopHoryová et al, 2017a;kraJčovičová et al, 2018;červená et al, 2020) and in phoretic association (červená et al, 2018). From the genus Chernes Menge, 1855, only C. similis (Beier, 1932) was previously known from North Macedonia (Harvey, 2013b).…”
