The Feaellidae Ellingsen, 1906 is a small but ancient family of pseudoscorpions with 20 extant species across the Southern Hemisphere, and fossils from the Lower Cretaceous of Myanmar and the Eocoene of Europe. Here, we describe and illustrate Feaella (Tetrafeaella) obscura sp. nov. as a new species from the Maldives archipelago in the Indian Ocean. This is the first record of Feaella from a young oceanic island and may indicate a potential for long-distance dispersal in this lineage. We also elevate Feaella (T.) capensis nana Beier, 1966 to full species rank as F. (T.) nana Beier, 1966 and provide an identification key to the members of the subgenus Feaella (Tetrafeaella), thereby facilitating the identification of species.

Feaella (Tetrafeaella) obscura sp。十一月 – 来自马尔代夫的新假蝎种（蛛形纲、假蝎目），以及 Feaella 亚属（Tetrafeaella）的更新识别码

Feaellidae Ellingsen, 1906 是一个小而古老的假蝎科，在南半球有 20 种现存物种，化石来自缅甸的下白垩纪和欧洲的始新世。在这里，我们描述和说明 Feaella (Tetrafeaella) obscura sp。十一月 作为来自印度洋马尔代夫群岛的新物种。这是来自一个年轻的海洋岛屿的 Feaella 的第一个记录，可能表明该谱系有远距离传播的潜力。我们还将 Feaella (T.) capensis nana Beier, 1966 提升为 F. (T.) nana Beier, 1966 的完整物种等级，并为 Feaella (Tetrafeaella) 亚属的成员提供识别密钥，从而促进物种的识别.
