| Abstract |
The genus Gemixystus Iredale, 1929 in New Caledonia is reviewed. Five species are recorded of which two are new, G. impolitus n. sp. and G. lenis n. sp. Gemixystus stimuleus (Hedley, 1912) is recorded for the first time in New Caledonia. Gemixystus transkeiensis (Houart, 1987) is re-transferred from Vaughtia to Gemixystus. The 12 extant species of Gemixystus are illustrated. |
