Abstract
Paralamyctes (Haasiella) Pocock, 1901 (= Wailamyctes Archey, 1917) includes three described species from New Zealand and its Subantarctic Islands. Australian species of P. (Haasiella) include P. (H.) subicolus n. sp. from Tasmania and a clade composed of P. (H.) cammooensis n. sp. from Queensland and New South Wales, P. (H.) ginini n. sp. from New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, and an allied species from Tasmania. Monophyly of P. (Haasiella) and the membership of a P. (H.) cammooensis Group are supported by parsimony analysis of morphological characters. A grouping of P. (Haasiella) and P. (Thingathinga) as retrieved by molecular data analysis is also found in minimal length cladograms based on morphology. The dataset incorporates new information on several previously poorly known henicopids, including the types of Lamyctopristus Attems, 1928, and Analamyctes Chamberlin, 1955.Keywords
