Abstract

A new description and illustration of Polydesmus elegans, the type species of Polydesmus, is given. It was formerly considered as congeneric with Sporidesmium. Two new genera, Imimyces to accommodate I. aquaticus, I. bambusae, I. carrii, I. densus, I. heterocateniformis and I. hollowayensis, and Linkosia to accommodate the single species L. coccothrinacis, are proposed. A key to species of Imimyces is provided, and a new species and six new combinations are proposed.
