Nannochelifer paralius is a species of pseudoscorpion in the Cheliferidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 1984 by Australian arachnologist Mark Harvey. The specific epithet paralius comes from the Greek paralios ('by or near the sea'), referring to the species’ habitat.[1][2]
