A Neboiss

Abstract

Species previously referred to the genus Elatichrosis Hyslop were found to consist of a number of distinct groups, and the genus is now restricted to that group surrounding the type species exarata (Candeze). 13 species are now recognized in the genus Elatichrosis s.s., of which nine are described as new, and all are entirely Australian in distribution. The new genus Lingana is proposed for the reception of illita (Candeze), and one new species from Western Australia. All extra-Australian species are now excluded from Elatichrosis.
