Stenaphorura japygiformis Absolon, 1900 was redescribed based on the holotype and on virtually topotypic material from the Moravian Karst, Czech Republic. Lectotype of Stenaphorura lubbocki Bagnall, 1935 was redescribed and used for comparison with S. japygiformis. The postantennal organ, composed of 50-56 simple vesicles, is 3.8 times the length of the frontal pseudocellus in S. japygiformis, compared to 75 vesicles and 6.3 time in the related S. lubbocki. Figures and measurements of some structures are given for the first time. As a consequence of my studies Stenaphorurella Luciánez & Simón, 1992 is sunk into synonymy of Stenaphorura Absolon, 1990. All species transferred into Stenaphorurella by Luciánez & Simón (1992) and by Khanislamova et al. (1997) are reintroduced into Stenaphorura Absolon, 1990.
