Triregia monstrosa is a species of harvestmen (Opiliones) in the family Triaenonychidae. The species is endemic to New Zealand, found only on ManawatÃÂwhi / Three Kings Islands.
In the original description, Forster described the body of species as below:
T. monstrosa can be differentiated from other members of Triregia due to a lack of spinous tubercles on the posterior margin of scute or Tergal Area 4.
The species was described by Ray Forster in 1948, as the type species of the genus Triregia, which he described in the same paper. The holotype, collected on 6 May 1946 by Graham Turbott from ManawatÃÂwhi / Great Island in ManawatÃÂwhi / Three Kings Islands, is held by the Auckland War Memorial Museum.
The species is endemic to ManawatÃÂwhi / Three Kings Islands in New Zealand.
