摘要
The genus Maudheimia Dalenius, 1958 occurs on the Antarctic continent and contains four known species (M. wilsoni Dalenius, 1958; M. petronia Wallwork, 1962; M. marshalli Coetzee, 1997 and M. tanngardenensis Coetzee, 1997). Maudheimia marshalli has 15 pairs of notogastral setae in the adults for which Sub as (2004) proposed the genus Multimaudheimia. The other three species have 10 pairs of notogastral setae in the adult stage. The value of %26quot;number of notogastral setae%26quot; as a single generic character has previously been shown as insufficient to distinguish a genus. The authors conclude that the genus Multimaudheimia Sub as, 2004 is a synonym of Maudheimia. The relationship of Maudheimia is confirmed as a member of Ceratozetoidea in the family Maudheimiidae.
