Abstract
Megaloceroea recticornis (Geoffroy) is recorded from New Zealand. M. reuteriana White and three new species, one from New Zealand, Tasmania and Australia, one from New Guinea, and one from Norfolk Island and Raoul Island, form a distinct, but related new genus from the Australian region. A key to these species is provided. Megaloceroea doddi Distant is transferred to Trigonotylus and M. antennata Distant to Dolichomiris, whilst Acomocera gen. nov. is described to contain M. elongata Distant. Thus all the species remaining in Megaloceroea Fieber are removed from that genus, except the type species. Trigonotylus dohertyi Distant is synonymized with doddi Distant, which is recorded from New Zealand, Norfolk Island and Raoul Island. Lectotypes are designated where necessary.
