Remarks
- Systematics: The adult male of K. hungaricus appears to be a typical apterous rhizoecine male but differs from the other apterous species in having the following combination of character states: (i) few setae on each antennal segment, with fs and hs hard to separate; (ii) body setae short and very sparse; (iii) absence of loculate and simple pores; (iv) possible absence of tarsal campaniform pores; (v) tarsal segmentation rather unclear, particularly on anterior legs; (vi) tarsal digitules with either blunt or small capitate apices, and (vii) claws short, with claw digitules equal to or longer than claw. (Hodgson, 2012)
- Biology: Material of this species was collected soil of various plants. The actual host plant is unknown (F. Kozar, unpublished information).
